I found some FIPS-enabled boxes for Vagrant[0] but they only support VirtualBox. I think we'll have to roll our own libvirt FIPS boxes.

Instructions to enable FIPS are here:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/security_guide/chap-federal_standards_and_regulations

It basically requires setting a kernel parameter.

dalley, good find. I pinged ehelms because Katello supports multiple OSes for the dev environment. He recommended either using the generic Ansible package module[0] or add checks to see what family of OS you're on.

[0] I think it's this http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/package_module.html

I got it working (the development environment, not Pulp)

Use this branch: https://github.com/pulp/devel/tree/fips

I grafted the FIPS enablement steps from katello/forklift. During the FIPS enablement process the VM restarts, and when it comes back up Vagrant doesn't re-mount the shared folders (which, the ansible scripts need in order to create the editable installs.

So, the one little pinprick when using this environment is that you need to keep an eye on the ansible progress, and once it finishes rebooting for FIPS enablement and begins the normal Pulp provisioning steps, in another terminal you need to run the command "vagrant sshfs --mount".

That will re-mount the shared folders if you are using SSHFS. I don't use NFS anymore so I don't know the process, there.

Near the end of provisioning, it does throw some FIPS related errors, but that is where our real work will need to begin and not part of this task
