Hey all,

Is it possible to run the internal ips in multi context mode?

Yes you can. But the flexibility for the IPS-management is not the same as for your firewall-management. In the IPS you only have one central management. So you can not delegate the IPS-management to your customers. The only flexibility is that you can activate virtual sensors on the IPS and assign them to your firewall-contexts.

Thanks mate, that should not be a problem as they're all managed by the same customer. Can multi sensors be set up for different contexts?

If you mean the virtual sensors when you talk about "multi sensors", then yes, you can do that:
