So it seems that it is not necessary to be a clever hacker as spender to
disable SELinux on a system (http://grsecurity.net/~spender/exploit.txt).
Just follow the directions of the vendor. This one require to disable
selinux for the proper function of one of its HA products, after years that
the same vendor was critical with commercial product, o badly compiled open
source for SELINUX execmem o textreloc issue,  because they require the
same.
[...]

It is just necessary to install an updated SELinux policy to make the
RH Cluster work with SELinux.

I guess the fault is mainly in the vendor documentation...
