Fixed In Version: selinux-policy-3.13.1-102.el7_3.16 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Prior to this update, an SELinux rule for Open vSwitch (OVS) was missing. As a consequence, during boot time, while running SELinux in enforcing mode, the ovs-ctl script was not allowed to run the hostname and ip commands. The missing policy rule has been added, and OVS is now able to configure itself properly during boot time.
