[ovirt-users] SELinux and oVirt

Hi,

In the oVirt guide, it says that "SELinux is being used by default on oVirt
Node", but then goes on to say that if you have problems you should set it
to permissive mode. I have had a few things fail due to being blocked by
SELinux on a node I later enabled SELinux on, as it was off at install
time. The other node which has had SELinux on from the start and so far has
not had any oVirt operations blocked. I am guessing that the oVirt install
process creates the necessary rules to allow vdsm to run under SELinux. So
if you want to set SELinux to enforcing after installation, is there a
script to do this, or is it better to just reinstall the node or engine,
rather than trying to work out the individual exceptions?

Thanks,

Cam
