Remote commands scheduled in the SUSE Manager WebUI fail to execute with a permission denied error, e.g. similar to:

End Date: 12/13/18 2:33 PM
Return Code: 2
Raw Output: view/download raw script output
Filtered Output:
stderr:
/bin/sh: /tmp/__salt.tmp.saBYiT.sh: Permission denied
In the webUI, Error can be found in System > Events > History
The client mounts /tmp with security enhancing options like nodev,noexec,nosuid.
Cause
Commands scheduled in the SUSE Manager WebUI are stored in a temporary script in /tmp on the client before being executed. As /tmp was mounted using the noexec option which prevents execution of scripts, the script fails with a permission denied error.
