nimldr robot install on PowerPC RedHat does not work if installed on mounted folder.

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

You are unable to install a robot on el9_2.ppc64le server if the target install folder is mounted. 

The installation is successful if the folder is unmounted.

Environment

DX UIM 20.4.x / 23.4.x

Linux el9_2.ppc64le

Cause

We tested the robot installation on a mounted folder in Redhat Linux ppc64 machine.
If SE Linux is in enforcing mode systemctl is unable to start nimbus service due to permissions and hence installation is failing in the mounted folder.

 

Resolution

Overwrite the /opt/monitoring section <options> with "defaults" to context="system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0" in fstab.
