  • Ticket #590 – Description

    initial v1  
    1 This problem is not really a mondo problem. But the McAfee scanner blocks in my default configuration certain files, which makes it impossible to create a backup. McAfee doesn't like some files in the tar archive.
     1This problem is not really a mondo problem. But the !McAfee scanner blocks in my default configuration certain files, which makes it impossible to create a backup. !McAfee doesn't like some files in the tar archive.
    22The problem cannot be solved by mondo, but my idea would be to write a big warning message into a log file.

    4 Here are my error messages on SLES 11 SP1 with McAfee on access scanner.
     4Here are my error messages on SLES 11 SP1 with !McAfee on access scanner.
    55These messages are shown in the McAfee console:

    67The file is a Block/Char/FIFO special file object=/usr/lib64/mindi/rootfs/vc.tgz, reason=NotScanned, uid=root, programPath=/bin/cp scanType=File
    78The file is a Block/Char/FIFO special file object=/usr/lib64/mindi/rootfs/rd.tgz, reason=NotScanned, uid=root, programPath=/bin/cp scanType=File
    … …  
    1516The file is a Block/Char/FIFO special file object=/var/cache/mondo.scratch.18997/mondo.scratch.3166/images/all.tar.gz, reason=NotScanned, uid=root, programPath=gzip scanType=File

    1920One idea to improve the error handling could be to run this script during the sanity check.
     21{{{
    2022if [ $(cat /proc/linuxshield/enabled 2>/dev/null) = "1" ]; then
    2123        echo "McAfee LinuxShield is enabled. McAfee might block access to certain special files."
    … …  
    2527        echo "Disable the scanner during the backup"
    2628fi
     29}}}

    2831Another idea would be to do a simple check if the *.tgz files in /usr/lib64/mindi/rootfs/ are readable. My McAfee version blocks the access to the files. They are not readable.
