For RHEL/CentOS, to run the program in the background, use the daemon option.

Note:

Service Assurance Manager Console crashes when running commands on a Linux platform since the FIPS library fails to load. SELinux prevents the shared libraries, libcryptocme2.so and libccme_base.so from loading because of the existence of text relocation in the library.

The following workarounds are available to avoid the SAM Console crash:

  1. Run the following commands to change the file context for the shared libraries, libcryptocme2.so and libccme_base.so to textrel_shlib_t:

    chcon -t textrel_shlib_t libcryptocme2.so chcon -t textrel_shlib_t libccme_base.so
  2. Set the parameter setenforce to 0 to run SELinux in permissive mode.

  3. Navigate to Edit /etc/selinux/config and set the parameter SELINUX to Disabled.
