Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2012-11-05 18:46:49 UTC
If you change the label to xen_image_t this should work fine.


chcon -t xen_image_t para.img f16.img

Can you run this from libvirt?

Comment 2 Michal Kovarik 2012-11-06 11:39:25 UTC
I've changed label and it works now.
I used virt-manager for system installation.

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2012-11-07 13:41:02 UTC
Ok so this xen image is located in the /var/lib/libvirt/images by default in your case, right?

Comment 4 Michal Kovarik 2012-11-07 13:57:19 UTC
yes

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2012-11-07 15:53:36 UTC
Maybe we should just allow xend to manager virt_image_t.

Comment 6 Miroslav Grepl 2012-11-08 09:40:40 UTC
I agree. Added to selinux-policy-3.11.1-52.fc18
