If you want/need to use things like Lustre, for instance, you can forgot about SELinux and AppArmor, it simply doesn't work. Isn't it a common practice in HPC to keep security rules relatively relaxed *inside* a cluster (passwordless logins between compute nodes for instance), whilst trying to harden the links to the external world? I mean, most of the scientific applications haven't precisely been designed with security as their first concern, have they?
