I get the following "avc: denied" errors when running rysnc to backup up my
current FC6 implementation.

avc:  denied  { associate } comm=rsync dev=dm-1 scontext=system_u:object_r:ramf\
s_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t:s0 tclass=filesystem
avc:  denied  { associate } comm=rsync dev=dm-1 scontext=system_u:object_r:secu\
rity_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t:s0 tclass=filesystem
avc:  denied  { associate } comm=rsync dev=dm-1 scontext=system_u:object_r:rpc_\

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2007-01-15 15:31:03 UTC 
Please explain what you are doing?  Are you running an rsync server and copying
the files with rsync preserving security context?

These errors look like you are attempting to backup files filesystems that
really should not be backedup. Backing up these file systems might not make
sense.  -x qualifier might be able to help
