      Description

      Monitor pod is logging a failure every minute :

      time="2023-03-29T13:38:44.612082211Z" level=warning msg="cannot monitor /run/vc/sbs, retry in 60 sec." error="permission denied" name=kata-monitor pid=1 source=kata-monitor
      time="2023-03-29T13:39:44.612766433Z" level=warning msg="cannot monitor /run/vc/sbs, retry in 60 sec." error="permission denied" name=kata-monitor pid=1 source=kata-monitor
      time="2023-03-29T13:40:44.613944245Z" level=warning msg="cannot monitor /run/vc/sbs, retry in 60 sec." error="permission denied" name=kata-monitor pid=1 source=kata-monitor
      

      Matching selinux denials are logged on the host :

      type=AVC msg=audit(1680097124.610:359): avc:  denied  { watch } for  pid=11960 comm="kata-monitor" path="/run/vc/sbs" dev="tmpfs" ino=4078 scontext=system_u:system_r:osc_monitor.process:s0:c862,c902 tcontext=system_u:object_r:container_var_run_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Install OSC 1.4 on OCP 4.13
      2. Create a kataconfig
      3. Wait for a monitor pod to be running
      4. Look at the logs of that monitor and the audit logs on the host

      Expected result

      No errors.

      Actual result

      Errors mentioned in the description.

      Impact

      No metrics.

      Env
