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 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.
