Description Grosswiler Roger 2011-03-04 15:58:51 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ctl_cyrusdb from 'create' accesses on the directory db.backup1.

*****  Plugin catchall_labels (83.8 confidence) suggests  ********************

If you want to allow ctl_cyrusdb to have create access on the db.backup1 directory
Then you need to change the label on db.backup1
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'db.backup1'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: cyrus_var_lib_t, cyrus_tmp_t, mail_spool_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v 'db.backup1'


*****  Plugin catchall (17.1 confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that ctl_cyrusdb should be allowed create access on the db.backup1 directory by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep ctl_cyrusdb /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
