Every time I boot a Linux MA server running CVLT version 11.26.3 I have some messages like those:

 

[   83.681139] systemd-readahead[1017]: mmap(/opt/commvault/Base64/cvd) failed: Permission denied
[   83.715006] systemd-readahead[1017]: mmap(/opt/commvault/MediaAgent64/CvMountd) failed: Permission denied
[   83.717208] systemd-readahead[1017]: mmap(/opt/commvault/Base64/CVODS) failed: Permission denied
 

CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

 

[root@cvault-ma-02 2022.03.29-15:17:26 ]
[ ~ ] rpm -qa | grep systemd

systemd-219-78.el7_9.5.x86_64

Any hint?

Does the software still work correctly?

Looks like this could be related to SELinux - is it enabled? You could temporarily disable and see if the error goes away. (more info)

 

Also - did you enable ransomware protection - I believe that enables and sets SElinux policies but it should work correctly out of the box.

Mike, Thank you. Yes. SELinux is enabled. 

 

It sounds like a conflict between systemd-readahead component and SELinux.

Is there a command to verify if ransomware protection is enabled other than running ./cvsecurity.py enable_protection again?
