Description of problem:
Summary
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/smartd (fsdaemon_t) "getattr" access to
    device /dev/twa0.

Detailed Description
    SELinux has denied the /usr/sbin/smartd (fsdaemon_t) "getattr" access to
    device /dev/twa0. /dev/twa0 is mislabeled, this device has the default label
    of the /dev directory, which should not happen.  All Character and/or Block
    Devices should have a label. You can attempt to change the label of the file
    using restorecon -v /dev/twa0. If this device remains labeled device_t, then
    this is a bug in SELinux policy. Please file a
    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against the selinux-policy
    package. If you look at the other similar devices labels, ls -lZ
    /dev/SIMILAR, and find a type that would work for /dev/twa0, you can use
    chcon -t SIMILAR_TYPE /dev/twa0, If this fixes the problem, you can make
    this permanent by executing semanage fcontext -a -t SIMILAR_TYPE /dev/twa0
    If the restorecon changes the context, this indicates that the application
    that created the device, created it without using SELinux APIs.  If you can
    figure out which application created the device, please file a
    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi against this application.
