getsebool(8) SELinux Command Line documentation getsebool(8)
NAME
getsebool - get SELinux boolean value(s)
SYNOPSIS
getsebool [-a] [boolean]
DESCRIPTION
getsebool reports where a particular SELinux boolean or all SELinux
booleans are on or off In certain situations a boolean can be in one
state with a pending change to the other state. getsebool will report
this as a pending change. The pending value indicates the value that
will be applied upon the next boolean commit.
The setting of boolean values occurs in two stages; first the pending
value is changed, then the booleans are committed, causing their active
values to become their pending values. This allows a group of booleans
to be changed in a single transaction, by setting all of their pending
values as desired and then committing once.
OPTIONS
-a Show all SELinux booleans.
