Hello, group.

I'm bringing up a couple new RHEL9 servers to load GKLM 5.0 onto.  The servers have fapolicyd installed and active.  Unfortunately, I don't think the 2 are compatible.

Every time GLKM launches, it creates new folders in /opt/IBM/WebSphere/Liberty/usr/servers/gklm50server/workarea/org.eclipse.osgi/, folders which I have not been able to account for in fapolicyd because they weren't there previously.  Is there a way to run GKLM where it doesn't created new folders or a way to run fapolicyd (not in permissive mode) where it allows newly created folders/files under a specific folder?  Reading about both, I haven't found a way.  Does GKLM really, really need the newly created folders or can we live with those not being allowed?

Thank you for any help.

Hello Dennis,  I see you have asked this question twice here and no responses yet.  Unfortunately I do not have the answer for you but I would suggest you reach out to your local techsales if you are doing a POC or trial or open a case with support on https://www.ibm.com/support if you are using licensed software.  
( I see you are also IBMer, will contact you via internal systems also)
Regards, 

Erwin
