SELinux - Re: how to prevent files and directories from being deleted?

I am confused why you would want persistence for these objects in any operating system. Could you show us the relevant errors you are getting when rebooting? You mentioned SELinux. Is the problem that you have SELinux enabled and the packages that you are using do not come with an appropriate SELinux policy making them unable to open sockets / write pid files? Which SELinux context are these applications running in?

systemd-networkd issue
by Phil Manuel 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Hi, If I disable ipv6 via the kernel command line, ipv6.disable=1, then systemd-networkd fails to bring up any interfaces. Removing the option and networking works as expected. Phil.

Someone started some discussion on FreeBSD-questions mail list that may chime in with some sysadmins on this mail list, so I decided to pass it alone: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2017-October/279108.h… Sorry about spam (those who consider it spam).

multipath
by Tony Schreiner 03 Oct '17

03 Oct '17

I have inherited a system set up with multipath, which is not something I have seen before so I could use some advice The system is a Dell R420 with 2 LSI SAS2008 HBAs, 4 internal disks, and a MD3200 storage array attached via SAS cables. Oh and CentOS 6 lsblk shows the following: NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sdd 8:48 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sdd1 8:49 0 931.5G 0 part └─mpathi (dm-0) 253:0 0 931.5G 0 mpath sdc 8:32 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sdc1 8:33 0 1000M 0 part /boot ├─sdc2 8:34 0 31.3G 0 part / ├─sdc3 8:35 0 31.3G 0 part [SWAP] ├─sdc4 8:36 0 1K 0 part ├─sdc5 8:37 0 184.5G 0 part /home └─sdc6 8:38 0 683.6G 0 part /data01 sde 8:64 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sde1 8:65 0 931.5G 0 part └─mpathj (dm-1) 253:1 0 931.5G 0 mpath └─mpathjp1 (dm-8) 253:8 0 931.5G 0 part /data02 sdf 8:80 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sdf1 8:81 0 931.5G 0 part └─mpathk (dm-2) 253:2 0 931.5G 0 mpath sda 8:0 0 51T 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sda2 8:2 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sda3 8:3 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sda4 8:4 0 12.8T 0 part └─mpathe (dm-3) 253:3 0 51T 0 mpath ├─mpathep1 (dm-4) 253:4 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN101 ├─mpathep2 (dm-5) 253:5 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN102 ├─mpathep3 (dm-6) 253:6 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN103 └─mpathep4 (dm-7) 253:7 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN104 sdb 8:16 0 51T 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sdb2 8:18 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sdb3 8:19 0 12.8T 0 part ├─sdb4 8:20 0 12.8T 0 part └─mpathe (dm-3) 253:3 0 51T 0 mpath ├─mpathep1 (dm-4) 253:4 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN101 ├─mpathep2 (dm-5) 253:5 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN102 ├─mpathep3 (dm-6) 253:6 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN103 └─mpathep4 (dm-7) 253:7 0 12.8T 0 part /SAN104 sda and sdb are two views of the unit on the MD, sdc is the boot and root disk, one of the disks sde (mpathj) has a mounted file system, the remaining two do not. here is df: Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdc2 ext4 31G 26G 4.0G 87% / tmpfs tmpfs 16G 92K 16G 1% /dev/shm /dev/sdc1 ext4 969M 127M 793M 14% /boot /dev/sdc6 ext4 673G 242G 398G 38% /data01 /dev/mapper/mpathjp1 ext4 917G 196G 676G 23% /data02 /dev/sdc5 ext4 182G 169G 3.9G 98% /home /dev/mapper/mpathep1 ext4 13T 11T 1005G 92% /SAN101 /dev/mapper/mpathep2 ext4 13T 5.0T 7.0T 42% /SAN102 /dev/mapper/mpathep3 ext4 13T 4.9T 7.1T 42% /SAN103 /dev/mapper/mpathep4 ext4 13T 8.2T 3.8T 69% /SAN104 So a few questions: Is there any value in using multipath on the 4 internal drives; do they actually have multiple data paths? Why does multipath not create a mpath device for the system disk sdc, there is no blacklist in the mulitpath.conf file. If I do a dry-run mulitpath -d command, it sets up mpathh on sdc, but apparently not on boot. Why not? I should say that the system has not been rebooted since well before I took it over, it has been up for over 400 days. the sdd and sdf disks have a single partition, but apparently no mpath device for the partition, how to I create one? Thanks in advance

Yum java-devel not listed installed
by david 03 Oct '17

03 Oct '17

Folks I performed an install of "java-devel". Several packages got installed. So far so good. Yet, when I performed yum list installed | grep java-devel and also yum rpm -qa | grep java-devel it did not show up as already installed. This behavior appears both on Centos7 and Centos6. This bothers me because as a time-saving effort, I maintain the last output of "yum list installed" and quickly determine whether it's worth running yum. True, yum would "do nothing", but that takes several seconds. Is there some simple explanation? It works for all the other packages I've installed. David

If you did, instead, "yum list installed | grep java | grep devel" it would work. Your "yum rpm -qa | grep java-devel" isn't a valid yum option. The correct command: rpm -qa | grep java-devel would fail to find it for the same reason your "yum list" command did. Try instead: rpm -qa java\* | grep devel that should turn it up: java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel.x86_64 1:1.8.0.144-0.b01.el7_4 @updates Your /var/log/yum.log shows the names of the packages installed, which can help if there is confusion.

compile webkit
by Jerry Geis 02 Oct '17

02 Oct '17

I am trying to compile webkitgtk I downloaded the webkit source, extracted CMake Error at Source/cmake/OptionsGTK.cmake:12 (message): GCC 4.9.0 is required to build WebKitGTK+, use a newer GCC version or clang I downloaded 2.14.7 - just like CentOS 7.4 has, how can I be getting a GCC error ? My goal is to get the MediaSource package in webkit working. It seems to not be enabled. Is there a better way ? Thanks, Jerry
