The tasks in the security role enable the appropriate Linux Security Module
(LSM) for the operating system.
For Ubuntu systems, AppArmor is installed and enabled. This change takes
effect immediately.
For CentOS or Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems, SELinux is enabled (in
enforcing mode) and its user tools are automatically installed. If SELinux is
not in enforcing mode already, a reboot is required to enable SELinux and
relabel the filesystem.
.. warning::
Relabeling a filesystem takes time and the server must be offline for the
relabeling to complete. Filesystems with large amounts of files and
filesystems on slow disks will cause the relabeling process to take more
time.
Deployers can opt out of this change by setting the following Ansible variable:
.. code-block:: yaml
security_rhel7_enable_linux_security_module: no
