> In DR19 there was introduced DelegatingKeyManager [1], which is used by default. That breaks FIPS TLS on Oracle/OpenJDK java, because only JSSE keymanagers are permitted in FIPS mode [2]
> {code:java|title=SSLContextImpl.java}
> 	// In FIPS mode, require that one of SunJSSE's own keymanagers
> 	// is used. Otherwise, we cannot be sure that only keys from
> 	// the FIPS token are used.
> 	if ((km instanceof X509KeyManagerImpl) || (km instanceof SunX509KeyManagerImpl)) {
> 		return (X509ExtendedKeyManager)km;
> 	} else {
> 		// throw exception, we don't want to silently use the
> 		// dummy keymanager without telling the user.
> 		throw new KeyManagementException ("FIPS mode: only SunJSSE KeyManagers may be used");
> 	}
> {code}
> Note, in my opinion it will be not enough to restrict reload operation only to file-based keystores. From my point of view reload would be also valid operation on PKCS11 module. 
> But more importantly there also exists file based FIPS keystore type - BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS).
