VM Firewalls Only

We're spinning up a limited, essentials only, DR Site for failover. This site is out of state and a single rack. Our typical deployment is PA Firewall > Core Switch > UCS Switch > Servers

Has anyone done or had luck virtualizing the PA Firewall side of that complete. As in our Internet Edge traffic would terminate on a VLAN and go through the Core Switch to the UCS Servers.. Then since our entire environment is virtualized it should stay within the UCS Backplanes.

In theory this should be easier to manage a remote site, but I have some hesitations and I'm trying to make sure it isn't just nerves of virtualized networking.
