In FC6 GA you have to make sure the file for the disk was under /xen
to be labelled correctly. In rawhide (and the latest FC6 policy)
we're moving to /var/lib/xen/images. This is consistent with the
directory used on Suse, and what the next version of XenD will
enforce. To double check what directory is setup for the SELinux
policy you can run
semanage fcontext -l | grep xen_image_t
If you don't have space under /var/lib/xen/images, then either
mount a new volume there, or bind that dir to a location which
has extra space, eg
mount --bind /some/dir/with/big/disk /var/lib/xen/images
If you really really don't want to use /var/lib/xen/images at all,
then you can define a new location in the SELinux policy using:
semanage fcontext -a -f "" -t xen_image_t '/some/directory(/.*)?'
This sounds like the missing piece, I can check where the current
install wants it, and then get it there in one way or another. I'll try
it some time over the long weekend and report back.
Thanks much, I suspect this was the hint I needed.
