LifeKeeper Core
Description
LifeKeeper syslog EMERG severity messages do not display to a SLES10 or SLES11
host's console which has AppArmor enabled
LifeKeeper is accessing /var/run/utmp which is disallowed by the SLES10 or SLES11
AppArmor syslog-ng configuration.
Solution: To allow LifeKeeper syslog EMERG severity messages to appear on a SLES10 or
SLES11 console with AppArmor enabled, add the following entry to
/etc/apparmor.d/sbin.syslog-ng:
/var/run/utmp kr
If added to sbin.syslog-ng, you can replace the existing AppArmor definition (without
rebooting) and update with:
apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.syslog-ng
Verify that the AppArmor update was successful by sending an EMERG syslog entry via:
logger -p local6.emerg "This is a syslog/lk/apparmor test."
