RHEL 6: semanage SELinux Command Not Found

I'm trying to use semanage command to configure certain elements of SELinux policy without requiring modification to or recompilation from policy sources under RHEL 6 server. But, I'm not able to find out this command and/or package name. How do I install semanage command under RedHat Enterprise Linux?

You need to use the yum command to find out which package provides file called /usr/sbin/semanage. Type the following command:
# yum provides /usr/sbin/semanage
OR
# yum whatprovides /usr/sbin/semanage
Sample outputs:
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin
policycoreutils-python-2.0.83-19.8.el6_0.x86_64 : SELinux policy core python utilities
Repo : rhel-x86_64-server-6
Matched from:
Filename : /usr/sbin/semanage
policycoreutils-python-2.0.83-19.1.el6.x86_64 : SELinux policy core python utilities
Repo : rhel-x86_64-server-6
Matched from:
Filename : /usr/sbin/semanage
Type the following command to install the same, enter:
# yum -y install policycoreutils-python

Now you can use semanage command:
# semanage
Sample outputs:
/usr/sbin/semanage:
semanage [ -S store ] -i [ input_file | - ]
semanage [ -S store ] -o [ output_file | - ]
semanage {boolean|login|user|port|interface|module|node|fcontext} -{l|D|E} [-n]
semanage login -{a|d|m} [-sr] login_name | %groupname
semanage user -{a|d|m} [-LrRP] selinux_name
semanage port -{a|d|m} [-tr] [ -p proto ] port | port_range
semanage interface -{a|d|m} [-tr] interface_spec
semanage module -{a|d|m} [--enable|--disable] module
semanage node -{a|d|m} [-tr] [ -p protocol ] [-M netmask] addr
semanage fcontext -{a|d|m} [-efrst] file_spec
semanage boolean -{d|m} [--on|--off|-1|-0] -F boolean | boolean_file
semanage permissive -{d|a|l} type
semanage dontaudit [ on | off ]
Primary Options:
-a, --add Add a OBJECT record NAME
-d, --delete Delete a OBJECT record NAME
-m, --modify Modify a OBJECT record NAME
-i, --input Input multiple semange commands in a transaction
-o, --output Output current customizations as semange commands
-l, --list List the OBJECTS
-E, --extract extract customizable commands

-c (character device)
-b (block device)
-s (socket)
-l (symbolic link)
-p (named pipe)
-F, --file Treat target as an input file for command, change multiple settings
-p, --proto Port protocol (tcp or udp) or internet protocol version of node (ipv4 or ipv6)
-M, --mask Netmask
-e, --equal Substitue source path for dest path when labeling
-P, --prefix Prefix for home directory labeling
-L, --level Default SELinux Level (MLS/MCS Systems only)
-R, --roles SELinux Roles (ex: "sysadm_r staff_r")
-s, --seuser SELinux User Name
