6 pcp_pmlogger_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 pcp_pmlogger processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pcp_pmlogger processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The pcp_pmlogger processes execute with the pcp_pmlogger_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep pcp_pmlogger_t
20
21
22
24 The pcp_pmlogger_t SELinux type can be entered via the pcp_pmlog‐
25 ger_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the pcp_pmlogger_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/pmlogger, /usr/share/pcp/lib/pmlogger,
31 /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmlogger
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 pcp_pmlogger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 pcp_pmlogger processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for pcp_pmlogger:
44
45 pcp_pmlogger_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a pcp_pmlogger_t can be used to make the
48 process type pcp_pmlogger_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
49 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 pcp_pmlogger policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56 allow you to manipulate the policy and run pcp_pmlogger with the tight‐
57 est access possible.

246 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
247 type.
248
249 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
250
251 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
252 SELinux pcp_pmlogger policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
253 their pcp_pmlogger processes in as secure a method as possible.
254
255 The following file types are defined for pcp_pmlogger:
256
257
258
259 pcp_pmlogger_exec_t
260
261 - Set files with the pcp_pmlogger_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
262 tion an executable to the pcp_pmlogger_t domain.
263
264
265 Paths:
266 /usr/bin/pmlogger, /usr/share/pcp/lib/pmlogger,
267 /usr/libexec/pcp/bin/pmlogger
268
269
270 pcp_pmlogger_initrc_exec_t
271
272 - Set files with the pcp_pmlogger_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
273 transition an executable to the pcp_pmlogger_initrc_t domain.
274
275
276
277 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
278 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
279 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
280 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
281
282
284 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
285 mappings.
286
287 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
288 process type is permissive.
289
290 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
291 icy modules.
292
293 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
294
295
296 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
297 icy settings.
