yum install policycoreutils policycoreutils-python selinux-policy selinux-policy-targeted libselinux-utils setroubleshoot-server setools setools-console mcstrans
All these packages were installed.
I checked sestatus and it showed the below result on stapp02 server.
SELinux status: disabled
Not sure, why task status shows failed?
required state of Selinux does not match on app03 server
Hi Krishna,
Thanks for reporting this. You also need to make sure the change is persistent i.e the status must remain disabled even after system reboot. Also you mentioned about results on stapp02 host however in error message you shared its stapp03, is it a typo? You also need to make sure changes were done on correct server.
Thanks

I installed SELinux and changed corresponding config to make the change permanent. After rebooting the app server, it never came up. And I failed the task.
Hi - I think the question mentions not to reboot the server? But thats OK. Please attempt the question again once its reassigned to you and let us know if you face issues.
@Krishna
after running installation script mentioned by you.
Below steps worked for me.
sudo vi /etc/selinux/config
Use this command to verify SELinux was configured correctly. One of my references: An Introduction to SELinux on CentOS 7 – Part 1: Basic Concepts | DigitalOcean
cat /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled
Hi,
i failed this question Selinux Installation , when it will be assigned to me again ?
Hi,
Don’t worry about the failed tasks, you might be reassigned that task in near future, please proceed with the other ones in your bucket.
Thanks

Hello,
I completed the task and install all the packages of Selinux in App Server 1, the status was disabled and I did not restart the server as per requirements of the task, however, I still failed the task. I attached an image of this result.
Check it out my link above. 
Hello,
I have installed selinux packages and updated SELINUX=disabled in /etc/selinux/config.
But my task status is shown as failed.
What is the mistake here.
Hi Diego,
You were supposed to make changes in Selinux configuration as well to keep the required state persistent. This is something you missed hence the answer was marked as failed for you.
Thanks

Hi Tenny,
Seems like you had a spelling mistake while making entry in Selinux config file. The state was supposed to be set to disabled but mistakenly you entered disbaled in the config so answer was marked as failed.
Thanks

I’ve installed all the SElinux packages and updated /etc/selinux/config by settin SELINUX=disable in stapp02. But the task is mentioned failed. What’s wrong?
Hi,
We just reviewed your answer and found that you rebooted the stapp02 server after making changes however in question it is clearly mentioned not to reboot the server. Please note that in any of the questions you never need to reboot the servers.
I hope it clarifies why your task was marked as failed.
Thanks
Inderpreet
Thanks for the response.
Hello, what did I miss? Here’s what I did:
Hi @samishken
As per error displayed w.r.t your task required packages are not installed on app server 1 seems like you were asked to make the required changes on App Server 1 instead of App Server 2. Hence task was marked as failed.
Hi,
I have installed all required packages in app server 3 and also Selinux status is disabled. Let me know where I went wrong.
