Disabling SELinux

SELinux is enabled by default in RHEL 6 and in some other distributions. Use the following procedure to disable SELinux

1. Edit /etc/selinux/config and change the SELINUX= line to be SELINUX=disabled
2. Reboot server
3. Confirm SELinux is disabled by running getenforce

   [root@server1 ~]# getenforce
   Disabled

4. Run setfattr -x security.selinux against each file or folder that you want to remove the SELinux ACL from
