How can I provide PCSD / Pacemaker GUI Management permissions to additional users?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Is it possible to give Pacemaker GUI access to users other then hacluster?
  • Is it possible for users not in the haclient group to manage cluster's via the GUI?
  • Attempting to login to gui at https://<node ip>:2223/login with non default cluster user or group results in error: Bad username or password.
  • Attempting to login as a non hacluster user, or a user not attached to the haclient group generates the below error in pcsd.log:

    $ cat /var/log/pcsd/pcsd.log
    -----------------------------------------8<----------------------------------------- 
    I, [2025-01-09T12:07:01.483 #00000]     INFO -- : Attempting login by 'testuser1'
    I, [2025-01-09T12:07:01.522 #00000]     INFO -- : Failed login by 'testuser1' (user is not a member of 'haclient' group)
