Description Ashish Humbe 2019-01-17 12:23:13 UTC

Describe the issue: Due to the known bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1652564 , it is not possible to use FIPS on satellite server 6.5 which is upgraded from older versions. 

So customers needs to:
1. Freshly install Satellite 6.5 on FIPS mode enabled RHEL system.
2. Sync all required repositories , create content views n all 
3. Re-register all clients to Satellite 

This is going to be a major activity and extra efforts. 

Suggestions for improvement: We need to make customers aware about use case of the FIPS and also, need to provide detailed documentation steps to achieve it.

Hi Ashish,
Thank you for raising this bug.

This is a quick note to let you know the team has received it, and is now looking in to how we can fit it into our schedule. I appreciate you referencing BZ 1652564 as that gives a baseline to work from.

Kind regards,

David
