Hi,

I am getting following error on creating a swap fs. CentOS 5.5 {{{ mkswap: unable to relabel /srv/cloud/one/var/25/images/disk.1 to system_u:object_r:swapfile_t: Operation not supported }}}

The selinux is configured in permissive mode. Any clues on what might be wrong here and how to fix it?

{{{ # /bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/srv/cloud/one/var/25/images/disk.1 bs=1 count=1 seek=512M

Are you doing this on an NFS partition? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/

Yup, the 'var' directory in path above is a nfs mount. Is there anyway I can enable this?

Thanks, neuby.r
