5. Start Policy Manager Server by running systemctl start fspms
6. Click import.
7. Select Linux Security installation package you want to use and click Import.
8. Select the imported installation package in the packages list and click Export.

Uninstallation

RHEL-based distributions: rpm -e f-secure-linuxsecurity

Known Issues

CSLP-3285: Manual and scheduled scanning are present on the GUI but currently are not operational. You can use the “fsanalyze” command to perform manual scanning from the command line.
CSLP-3288: Fsdiag generation does not work from the GUI. Use the command-line tool directly on the node, instead.
CSLP-3286: The update service currently does not generate alerts in case of failures.
CSLP-3291: Service status and statistics are currently not displayed in the policy manager UI.
CSLP-3289: Alerts are not mirrored in the system log.
CSLP-3292: Specifying special files or files in /proc and /sys in manual scanning may hang the product.
CSLP-3293: Debian-based systems are shown as "Unknown" in the Policy Manager Console.
CSLP-3309: Uninstall leaves 'fsaccd' process running. As a workaround, kill the fsaccd main process manually.
A re-install will fail if the process is still running.
