Here you go....

# getsebool -a | grep sanlock
sanlock_use_fusefs --> off
sanlock_use_nfs --> on
sanlock_use_samba --> off
virt_use_sanlock --> on


# grep -v -e "^#" -e "^$" /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf 
dynamic_ownership=0
spice_tls=1
spice_tls_x509_cert_dir="/etc/pki/vdsm/libvirt-spice"
lock_manager="sanlock"
