Once MCP repo configured (see this ) we start deploying HP add-ons

apt-get install hp-health hp-snmp-agents hpacucli hpsmh

Note, repo is for Wheezy so certain things are unsurprisingly broken, hp-snmp-agents among them – this depends on package libsnmp15 that is no longer available. Thanks to this post we can still make it working:

apt-get download  hp-snmp-agents
dpkg-deb --raw-extract hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4._amd64.deb hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4
vim hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4/DEBIAN/control
# swap "libsnmp15 (>= 5.4.1~dfsg)" with "libsnmp30|libsnmp-base"
dpkg-deb --build hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4 hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4._amd64-jessie.deb
dpkg -i hp-snmp-agents_9.4.0.1.5-4._amd64-jessie.deb
/etc/init.d/hp-snmp-agents start

Horrible SeLinux commands

These pesky SeLinux commands that are just impossible to remember

insta-06

We need some tools

yum install policycoreutils-python -y

Non-default location for homedirs

# say user dyzio comes from AD/LDAP and lives under /users/d/dyzio
mkdir -p /users/{a..z} # precreate home_root_t
chcon -t home_root_t /users
semanage fcontext -a -t home_root_t "/users(/.*)?"
restorecon -R -v /users

# if you need to autocreate home dirs you'll need 
yum install -y oddjob-mkhomedir
# and for AD users "usepasswd=True" in this file
vim /etc/selinux/semanage.conf
# this will check user entry in ldap and set correct security context "user_home_t" on user home

Samba

semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t "/srv/shared(/.*)?"
restorecon -R -v /srv/shared

Apache

setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail on

Assign the appropriate Selinux security context to our custom web app directories. This grants Apache permissions to access them.

chcon -Rv --type=httpd_sys_content_t /webapps/apps/app1/public_html
chcon -Rv --type=httpd_sys_content_t /webapps/logs/app1/
