Deploy Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x

Verify that SELinux is enabled

Verify that Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is enabled on all relevant nodes and operating systems.

1. Run the following command on all the nodes to check SELinux status:

   sestatus

   Expected output if SELinux is enabled and set to enforcing mode:

   SELinux status:                 enabled
   SELinuxfs mount:                /sys/fs/selinux
   SELinux root directory:         /etc/selinux
   Loaded policy name:             targeted
   Current mode:                   enforcing
   Mode from config file:          enforcing
   Policy MLS status:              enabled
   Policy deny_unknown status:     allowed
   Max kernel policy version:      31
   

   Expected output if SELinux is disabled:

   SELinux status:                 disabled

2. If SELinux is disabled, follow the corresponding operating system's guidelines in order to enable it.
   For example, for CentOS, the steps are:

   1. Run the command:

      b.	vi /etc/selinux/config

   2. Change the SELINUX line to enforcing or permissive, as needed:

      SELINUX=enforcing
      ...
      SELINUXTYPE=targeted
      

   3. Schedule a reboot of the operating system.
      CAUTION: If this process is running on a pre-deployed PowerFlex system, follow graceful shutdown guidelines to reboot a node with MDM\SDS\SDR\SDC. Refer to "Shutdown or restart a node gracefully" the Upgrade Dell PowerFlex matching your system version.
