Use non-FIPS Features

You can allow tenant users access to Palette features that are not FIPS-compliant, such as tenant cluster backup and restore or various scanning capabilities for compliance, security, validation, and software bill of materials (SBOM). Prior to enabling non-FIPS features, the Scan and Backups tabs are not displayed on the Cluster Overview page.

Prerequisites​

  • You need tenant admin permission to enable this feature.

  • Palette can back up clusters to several locations. To learn about backup requirements, review Backup-Restore.

  • There are no prerequisites for restoring clusters or performing scans.
