maximum excludes workaround?
OS: SL7.3, policycoreutils-2.5-11.el7_3.x86_64
I have a cluster with quite a few user home directories automounted from
a NFS server. I have found that if too many (> ~1000) home directories
are mounted, restorecon spits out the following:
# restorecon -R /var/lib/boinc
Maximum excludes 1000 exceeded.
[repeats hundreds of times]
This message pops up even when I'm not relabeling a part of the
filesystem that's unmounted. If I reduce the number of automounted home
directories, then the message goes away.
I get similar messages when loading and unloading custom selinux policy
modules.
Will this actually prevent restorecon from relabeling files?
Is there a dynamic way to increase this limit to make the messages go away?
