Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2011-06-29 13:49:07 UTC 
I created a new policy but we need to patch init script file.

 [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch $LOCK
+[ -x /sbin/restorecon ] && /sbin/restorecon $LOCK


with this patch the lock file will be created with the right label.
Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2011-10-05 05:13:59 UTC 
Well not sure why this fix is not going to RHEL6.2. This relates with policy changes.

running rhel6.2 snapshot 3, which uses rhsm versions:

subscription-manager-0.96.16-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-firstboot-0.96.16-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-gnome-0.96.16-1.el6.x86_64

rhsmcertd appears to be confined at startup:

ps auxfwwwZ | grep /usr/bin/rhsmcertd | grep -v grep
system_u:system_r:rhsmcertd_t:s0 root     1989  0.0  0.0   4112   404 ?        Ss   Oct24   0:00 /usr/bin/rhsmcertd 240 1440
system_u:system_r:rhsmcertd_t:s0 root     1991  0.0  0.0   4112   404 ?        S    Oct24   0:00  \_ /usr/bin/rhsmcertd 240 1440


rhsmcertd has its own binary context:

[root@jmolet-rhel62s3 ~]# ls -laZ /usr/bin/rhsmcertd
-rwxr-xr-x. root root system_u:object_r:rhsmcertd_exec_t:s0 /usr/bin/rhsmcertd
