As we have customers till trying to install and configure IdM/IPA in an untested configuration, should a note be added to the doc?

there is no trace of FIPS in the revision 7.0-16 of the Linux_Domain_Identity_Authentication_and_Policy_Guide

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/pdf/Linux_Domain_Identity_Authentication_and_Policy_Guide/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux-7-Linux_Domain_Identity_Authentication_and_Policy_Guide-en-US.pdf

and documenting the warning added a year ago or so, in 
bz 1131570 - Do not allow IdM server/replica/client installation in a FIPS-140 mode
?
