A new sysctl entry fs.ve-xattr-policy (file /proc/sys/fs/ve-xattr-policy on the HN) has been implemented and is available in RHEL5 kernels since 028stab0644.4. It allows you to control how to react when xattr changes from inside a Container.


Three options can be used:

0
accept any xattr modifications (Container 0 always and regular containers by default)
1
ignore
2
reject
Yellowpin.svg Note: If you assign any other value to "ve-xattr-policy", the policy will be set to "accept".
