Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to enable FIPS after installation of CA identity Virtual Appliance 

 

Environment

Release : 14.x

Component : CA IDENTITY SUITE (VIRTUAL APPLIANCE)

Resolution

The configuration of  FIPS is completed during the installation. 

All CA IDENTITY SUITE (VIRTUAL APPLIANCE) installs and components will need to have FIPS enabled or disabled.
  

It is not possible to reconfigure FIPS once the installation has completed,  you would need to completely reinstall with FIPS enabled or disabled. 

  

FIPS can not be changed once set.

BOXI, SSO and vApp would all need to have FIPS enabled. If the vApp nodes were originally installed without FIPS, they would need to be reinstalled with FIPS.
