SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python2.7 from 'write' accesses on the directory /var/cache/swift.

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

If you want to allow python2.7 to have write access on the swift directory
Then you need to change the label on /var/cache/swift
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE '/var/cache/swift'
where FILE_TYPE is one of the following: swift_data_t, swift_var_run_t, var_run_t. 
Then execute: 
restorecon -v '/var/cache/swift'


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

If you believe that python2.7 should be allowed write access on the swift 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 swift-object-re /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
