Description Milos Malik 2012-04-05 14:01:44 UTC 
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-doc-3.7.19-143.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-3.7.19-143.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-mls-3.7.19-143.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-minimum-3.7.19-143.el6.noarch
selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-143.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# run_init service lvm2-lvmetad status
Authenticating root.
Password: 
lvmetad is stopped
# run_init service lvm2-lvmetad start
Authenticating root.
Password: 
Starting LVM metadata daemon:                              [  OK  ]
  Cannot proceed since lvmetad is not active.
# run_init service lvm2-lvmetad status
Authenticating root.
Password: 
lvmetad (pid  8724) is running...
# ps -efZ | grep lvmetad
system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0   root      8724     1  0 15:59 ?        00:00:00 lvmetad
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 8739 5940  0 15:59 pts/0 00:00:00 grep lvmetad
# 

Actual results:
* lvmetad runs as initrc_t

Expected results:
* lvmetad runs in its own SELinux domain
Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-04-06 12:31:32 UTC 
Looks somethin which should be just labeled with lvm_exec_t. 

Milos, could you test it

$ chcon -t lvm_exec_t /sbin/lvmetad
Comment 2 Milos Malik 2012-04-06 13:08:41 UTC 
It seems to run well with that label.
