NAME

6       sysstat_selinux  -  Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sysstat pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures  the  sysstat  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  sysstat processes execute with the sysstat_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep sysstat_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  sysstat_t  SELinux type can be entered via the sysstat_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the sysstat_t domain are  the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/lib/sa/sa.*, /usr/lib/atsar/atsa.*, /usr/lib/sysstat/sa.*
31

PROCESS TYPES

33       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34       system
35
36       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
39       sysstat  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their sysstat
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for sysstat:
43
44       sysstat_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a sysstat_t can be used to make the  process
47       type  sysstat_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  sysstat
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate  the  policy and run sysstat with the tightest access possi‐
56       ble.
57
58
59
60       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67       If  you  want  to  allow  system  to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68       nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70       setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71
72
73

MANAGED FILES

75       The SELinux process type sysstat_t can manage files  labeled  with  the
76       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
77       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
78
79       krb5_host_rcache_t
80
81            /var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
82            /var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
83            /var/tmp/nfs_0
84            /var/tmp/DNS_25
85            /var/tmp/host_0
86            /var/tmp/imap_0
87            /var/tmp/HTTP_23
88            /var/tmp/HTTP_48
89            /var/tmp/ldap_55
90            /var/tmp/ldap_487
91            /var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
92
93       sysstat_log_t
94
95            /var/log/sa(/.*)?
96            /opt/sartest(/.*)?
97            /var/log/atsar(/.*)?
98            /var/log/sysstat(/.*)?

FILE CONTEXTS

102       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
103       type.
104
105       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
106
107       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
108       SELinux sysstat policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
109       sysstat processes in as secure a method as possible.
110
111       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
112
113       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the sysstat, if you wanted
114       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
115       the  semanage  command  to sepecify alternate labeling and then use re‐
116       storecon to put the labels on disk.
117
118       semanage fcontext -a -t sysstat_log_t '/srv/mysysstat_content(/.*)?'
119       restorecon -R -v /srv/mysysstat_content
120
121       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
122       match multiple files.
123
124       The following file types are defined for sysstat:
125
126
127
128       sysstat_exec_t
129
130       -  Set files with the sysstat_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
131       executable to the sysstat_t domain.
132
133
134       Paths:
135            /usr/lib/sa/sa.*, /usr/lib/atsar/atsa.*, /usr/lib/sysstat/sa.*
136
137
138       sysstat_initrc_exec_t
139
140       - Set files with the sysstat_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
141       tion an executable to the sysstat_initrc_t domain.
142
143
144
145       sysstat_log_t
146
147       -  Set files with the sysstat_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
148       as sysstat log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
149
150
151       Paths:
152            /var/log/sa(/.*)?,    /opt/sartest(/.*)?,    /var/log/atsar(/.*)?,
153            /var/log/sysstat(/.*)?
154
155
156       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
157       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
158       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
159       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS

163       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
164       mappings.
165
166       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
167       process type is permissive.
168
169       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
170       icy modules.
171
172       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
173
174
175       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
176       icy settings.
