SELinux enabled plug-in configuration for custom ports

NetBackup version 10.4 and later support SELinux on NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center hosts to communicate between the Snapshot Manager and the storage arrays.

For successful plug-in configuration, the port used for REST API communication in the plug-in configuration must have an entry in the CIL.

To enable the communication port:

Run the command:

# flexsnap_configure updatecil -i

You can see the following output:

Following SElinux updates detected for Snapshot Manager.
    allow VRTSflexsnap.process reserved_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect;
Do you want to update Snapshot Manager's SELinux policy? (y/n): y
Updating runtime SELinux policy ...done

Note:

If the custom port tag is not reflected in the output of this command, then the port is non-communicable for some other reasons.

For changes to take effect, run:
flexsnap_configure restart
