*Installing Airflow in a FIPS environment requires extra steps. For more information, see Installation on a FIPS Node.

**HBase cannot be used in a mixed (FIPS and non-FIPS) configuration. For example, a non-FIPS client node cannot communicate with a FIPS server node.

***In a mixed (FIPS and non-FIPS) configuration, there is a known issue related to Spark and Livy applications if the Spark UI is enabled. See Spark and Livy release notes for more information.

****This version does not support mixed FIPS mode.
