In regard to: Re: [Networker] Some comments on NetWorker 7.4, Stan Horwitz...:

Stan, when you say nwrecover are you referring to Networker user?

I guess so. I am referring to typing "nwrecover" on the command line on the Linux client. When I do that, I get an error as follows

125:nwrecover: unable to execute with hard links to binary /usr/bin/nwrecover
I get the same error on the NSR 7.4 server too.

That's a message I've never seen before.  I wonder if it has anything to
do with SELinux?

Try modifying /etc/sysconfig/selinux on the client, setting

        SELINUX=disabled

Then reboot the client.  You should see boot messages (or run dmesg) that
eventually say

        SELinux:  Disabled at runtime.

Try running nwrecover after you've rebooted and SELinux is disabled.  If
the problem goes away, it's because EMC's packages aren't correctly
interfacing with SELinux.

Remember to re-enable SELinux and reboot after you've done your test,
assuming you want to run with it enabled.
