Description Micah Abbott 2019-10-29 18:53:32 UTC 
In BZ#1766161, the following was reported

(2019-10-29 15:13:10,455 root         ERROR    NM main-loop aborted: Connection update failed: error=nm-settings-error-quark: failed to update connection: Could not open file '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens3' for writing: Permission denied (3), dev=ens3/<enum NM_DEVICE_STATE_ACTIVATED of type NM.DeviceState>)

Additional investigation via Slack found:

```

We need to relabel the ifcfg files that get persisted as part of ignition-dracut
Comment 1 Micah Abbott 2019-11-01 20:09:05 UTC 
The fix should be present in `ignition-0.33.0-9.rhaos4.3.git3625532.el8` and RHCOS builds after `43.81.201911011508.0`
Comment 4 Michael Nguyen 2019-11-20 17:29:00 UTC 
Verified on 4.3.0-0.nightly-2019-11-19-122017
