Hi,
I am running 389-ds on CentOs 6.7. I am trying to move 389-ds off the disk
that contains my root to a second disk that has space for the directory to
grow. Can someone please advise on the correct way to move files and
maintain selinux contexts. I moved the files using the method below, but
logs cannot be written to - please see error message at the bottom of this
email.
Setup
CentOs 6.7
selinux= enforcing
Second disk /mnt/ds389/data/
/mnt/389ds/log/
i used cp -rcp to copy and preserve SELINUX contexts and user rights
1. Stop dirsrv
2. cp -rcp /var/lib/dirsrv/ /mnt/ds389/data/
3. Checked selinux context using ls -Z dirsrv
output: drwxrwx---. nobody nobody
unconfined_u:object_r:dirsrv_var_lib_t:s0 slapd-eu-vc-pmldap01
4. renamed /var/lib/dirsrv (keep original files under a different name)
5. Create symbolic link # ln -s /mnt/389ds/data/ dirsrv
Logs
6. cp -rcp /var/log/dirsrv /mnt/389ds/log/
7. Checked selinux context for /mnt/389ds/log
drwx------. nobody nobody unconfined_u:object_r:dirsrv_var_log_t:s0
admin-serv
drwxr-xr-x. nobody nobody unconfined_u:object_r:dirsrv_var_log_t:s0
slapd-eu-vc-pmldap01
8. Renamed /var/log/dirsrv t
9. Create symbolic link in /var/log ln -s /mtn/389ds/log/ dirsrv
10. Reboot server
11 $ sudo service dirsrv start
