There are two aspects to this.  One is replica range management.
You have already checked the replica ranges so that seems OK.  More
details about replica range management in this blog post[1], if you
are interested.

The other aspect is VLV indices.  During startup, Dogtag uses a VLV
search to find the next unused identifier in its active range.  If
VLV indicies are corrupt or incomplete, it can result in this
behaviour.

It depends on the verison of FreeIPA.  Older versions used
serial-based renewal for system certificates.  This can cause big
problems if there are conflicts or old requests have been
overwritten.  Since freeipa-4.8.1 we perform a "fresh enrolment"
when renewing system certificates, to avoid such problems.

Next step is to stop Dogtag, rebuild VLV indices, restart Dogtag and
see if the problem went away.  I'm not quite sure how to do this.
I'll reply again when I work it out - or maybe someone familiar with
DS can advise.

Thanks,
Fraser
