Selinux serurity
To meet the security requirements for SELinux on App Server, follow these steps:
Step 1: Install Required SELinux Packages
If SELinux is not installed, install it using:
sudo yum install -y selinux-policy selinux-policy-targeted
For RHEL/CentOS systems.
Or for Debian/Ubuntu-based systems:
sudo apt install -y selinux-utils policycoreutils selinux-policy-default
Step 2: Permanently Disable SELinux
Modify the SELinux configuration file to disable SELinux:
sudo sed -i 's/^SELINUX=.*/SELINUX=disabled/' /etc/selinux/config
Alternatively, manually edit the file:
sudo nano /etc/selinux/config
Change the line:
SELINUX=enforcing
To:
SELINUX=disabled
Save and exit.
Step 3: Confirm the Change Without Considering Current Status
Since no immediate reboot is required, verify that SELinux is set to be disabled after the next reboot:
grep SELINUX= /etc/selinux/config
The output should show:
SELINUX=disabled
Once the maintenance reboot occurs, SELinux will remain disabled as per the configuration.
