Installing DataPlane Platform in SELinux Security Module

Generally, when you install the Dataplane Platform, the SELinux module should be disabled.

In certain specific cases, where it is not possible to disable SELinux, follow these steps to install DataPlane Platform:
  1. You must download the Docker 18+ version.
  2. Verify the SELinux mode:
    getenforce
    Enforcing
  3. Start the Docker service and check for the status
    systemctl status docker

    Make sure that Docker is in Active status.

    docker ps

    CONTAINER ID  IMAGE  COMMAND  CREATED  STATUS  PORTS  NAMES
    For more information about the installation process, see Installing DataPlane Platform.
  4. Bring up the DataPlane Platform service.
    /usr/dp/1.2.x.x-XX/core/bin/dpdeploy.sh init --all
    Note
    Note
    XX indicates the release build number.
  5. Run the Docker Container
    
    docker ps | awk '{print $NF}'
    NAMES
    dp-app
    dp-cluster-service
    dp-db-service
    dp-gateway
    knox
    dp-consul-server
    dp-database
    Note
    Note
    Verify if SELinux module is enabled or disabled. SELinux must still be enabled.
    getenforce
    Enforcing

    The DataPlane Platform UI is running and SELinux is enabled as well.
