SELinux: security_context_to_sid error
 

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your response.

I do not see any denials though.

What policies should I be checking for.

I am not sure what you are doing, but if you have a compiled policy on an
Older OS, you should recompile it on the NEW Os. not just attempt to install a
policy module.

This means you tried to pass context=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t as a
mount option (e.g. from /etc/fstab or the mount command line) when
mounting the dbcfs (which is what?), and you need to specify the :s0
suffix on the context for the MLS/MCS label.

SELinux: security_context_to_sid error
 

Hi Dan,

We are compiling our policies on the new OS and then installing it. All
the policies install fine.
When the box comes up after firstboot following the install that is when
we see this error in the
D message buffer.

Here are our current entries in the /etc/fstab file
