CA Workload Automation AE - Scheduler (AutoSys)

Issue/Introduction

The AutoSys 12.0 services fail to start using the unisrvcntr or systemctl commands on Linux. When running a 'systemctl status' on one of the services with the -l argument, it shows permission errors...

The files listed in the permission errors all have world read and execute permissions set. Also, it is verified that these can be executed directly.

Environment

Release : 12.0/12.0.01

Component : CA Workload Automation AE (AutoSys)

O/S: Linux

Resolution

Disable SELinux as it is blocking systemd from executing the necessary files.
