You might want to check out the semanage --equiv option. (man
semanage)
That basically allows you to alias existing file context structures:
heres an example from man semanage:
For home directories under top level directory, for
example /disk6/home,
execute the following commands.
# semanage fcontext -a -t home_root_t "/disk6"
# semanage fcontext -a -e /home /disk6/home
# restorecon -R -v /disk6
so in your case you might want to make /data equivalent to / or
something
semanage fcontext -a -e / /data
restorecon -R -v -F /data
That should label /data root_t, /data/var var_t, /data/var/lib var_lib_t
etc.
just as if it was your main file system.
So this sounds exactly what i would like to do with my Luks encrytped
USB back up drive.
Unfortunately, I'm stumbling across the fact that the drive is
'automagically' mounted (when I login or power it on), and it gets
mounted on /run/media/tbl/Backup1TB:
/dev/mapper/luks-94a9d7d7-f819-4c2c-b735-81bb28db0426 on
/run/media/tbl/Backup1TB type ext4
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered,uhelper=udisks2)
The 'semanage -e' command spews:
[root@tlondon ~]# semanage fcontext -a -e / /run/media/tbl/Backup1TB/X200
/sbin/semanage: File spec /run/media/tbl/Backup1TB/X200 conflicts with
equivalency rule '/run /var/run'; Try adding
'/var/run/media/tbl/Backup1TB/X200' instead
[root@tlondon ~]#
Appears that '/var/run/media' doesn't exist on my system (I guess /run
and /var/run are not really 'equivalent'?).
This an issue with my system (e.g., do I need an explicit entry in
fstab or some such)? With the scaffolding that deals with /run and
/var/run? Other? Should this work?
Thanks,
tom
