Issue/Introduction

Where to get a script to start the Policy Server at boot time?

Resolution

Policy Server files offer a sample script for sysVinit or OpenRC style:

  /{home_policy_server}/S98sm

This script can be integrated to system RedHat style as per documentation (1).

It's advised to integrate it according to documentation, and then apply one by one all custom configuration the environment might need.

System scripts are restricted to root users.

To run them from a non-root user, implement the sudo command.

Contact the RedHat Support or your system administrator to implement it that way with sudo command.

Here's a discussion on the internet about the same (2).

The given configuration from the documentation ensures that when system script run by root, the Policy Server runs with the user "smuser" (1).
