Description Jeff Raber 2011-09-13 07:08:55 UTC
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/collectd from 'read' accesses on the lnk_file hwmon0.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that collectd should be allowed read access on the hwmon0 lnk_file 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 collectd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
