fixfiles(8) fixfiles(8)
NAME
fixfiles - fix file SELinux security contexts.
SYNOPSIS
fixfiles [-F] [-l logfile ] { check | restore|[-f] relabel | verify } [[dir/file] ... ]
fixfiles [-F] [ -R rpmpackagename[,rpmpackagename...] ] [-l logfile ] { check | restore | verify }
fixfiles [ -C PREVIOUS_FILECONTEXT ] [-l logfile ] { check | restore | verify }
fixfiles onboot
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the fixfiles script.
This script is primarily used to correct the security context database (extended attributes) on filesystems.
It can also be run at any time to relabel when adding support for new policy, or just check whether the file contexts are all as you
expect. By default it will relabel all mounted ext2, ext3, xfs and jfs file systems as long as they do not have a security context mount
option. You can use the -R flag to use rpmpackages as an alternative. The file /etc/selinux/fixfiles_exclude_dirs can contain a list of
directories excluded from relabelling.
fixfiles onboot will setup the machine to relabel on the next reboot.
OPTIONS
-l logfile
Save the output to the specified logfile
-F Force reset of context to match file_context for customizable files
-f Clear /tmp directory with out prompt for removal.
-R rpmpackagename[,rpmpackagename...]
Use the rpm database to discover all files within the specified packages and restore the file contexts. (-a will get all files in
the RPM database).
-C PREVIOUS_FILECONTEXT
Run a diff on the PREVIOUS_FILECONTEXT file to the currently installed one, and restore the context of all affected files.
ARGUMENTS
One of:
check print any incorrect file context labels, showing old and new context, but do not change them.
restore
change any incorrect file context labels.
relabel
Prompt for removal of contents of /tmp directory and then change any incorrect file context labels to match the install file_con-
texts file.
verify List out files with incorrect file context labels, but do not change them.
[[dir/file] ... ]
List of files or directories trees that you wish to check file context on.
