NAME getsebool - get SELinux boolean value(s)

SYNOPSIS getsebool [-a] [boolean]

DESCRIPTION getsebool reports  where  a  particular SELinux boolean or all SELinux booleans are active or inactive. 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.
