Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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.

Description Jan Safranek 2013-08-20 10:33:52 UTC
Using OpenLMI providers, I get AVC:

type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1377000039.023:1500): arch=c000003e syscall=21 success=no exit=-13 a0=7f6e716a5080 a1=2 a2=7f6e6d197788 a3=7fffcf36aac0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=8084 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 ses=4294967295 tty=(none) comm="cimprovagt" exe="/usr/libexec/pegasus/cimprovagt" subj=system_u:system_r:pegasus_openlmi_storage_t:s0 key=(null)

type=AVC msg=audit(1377000039.023:1500): avc:  denied  { write } for  pid=8084 comm="cimprovagt" name="trace" dev="vda3" ino=261963 scontext=system_u:system_r:pegasus_openlmi_storage_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:pegasus_data_t:s0 tclass=dir

This is probably write to  /var/lib/Pegasus/cache/trace/. All Pegasus providers (incl. all OpenLMI providers) need to have write access there, it's for trace files.

(This bug applies also to Rawhide)
