Summary SELinux prevented /sbin/unix_update from using the terminal . Detailed Description SELinux prevented /sbin/unix_update from using the terminal . In most cases daemons do not need to interact with the terminal, usually these avc messages can be ignored. All of the confined daemons should have dontaudit rules around using the terminal. Please file a bug report against this selinux-policy. If you would like to allow all daemons to interact with the terminal, you can turn on the allow_daemons_use_tty boolean. Allowing Access Changing the "allow_daemons_use_tty" boolean to true will allow this access: "setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty=1.
