Hi all,

It seems HA needs root privileges to define groups and resources. Right? Can we hope a role based evolution soon?

And it seems any non root user can't even VIEW groups and HA resources? Can we hope any change soon?

We massively use LDAP authentication and try to avoid root logins as much as possible...
Thank you,​
Christophe.​
 
Yes, in PVE 3;x, but in PVE 4, as soon as you click HA tab :

permission check failed (user != root@pam) 403

This issue is addressed here: https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-ha-manager.git;a=commit;h=0fcba7ab35dcf459e24e07cceef73b4f65d7f294
No need to open a bug report anymore.

Will be in the repositories soon.

Hi Thomas,

just tried giving my PVE user the proper permissions. Neither role Administrator, nor PVESysAdmin give me the ability to edit the CRM HA
settings. Only root can do it.
Is the commit 0fcba7ab35dcf459e24e07cceef73b4f65d7f294 not yet live?
Running 4.4-1/eb2d6f1e

Thanks a lot for your help.

Thanks Fabian,

is the latest 4.4-13 only available for subscription users?
We are planning on purchasing a subscription anyways for our nodes.

no. the subscription repository gets packages with a slight delay to allow for more testing. pve-manager 4.4-13 is in pve-no-subscription.
 
Strange thing, I don't get the update to version 4.4-13

Here's my console output (did an apt-get update before, sources.list is up2date):

root@cl1-pve01:~# dpkg -l | grep pve-manager
ii pve-manager 4.4-1 amd64 The Proxmox Virtual Environment
root@cl1-pve01:~#
root@cl1-pve01:~# apt-get dist-upgrade

You were right, the pve-non-subscription repo was missing.
We skip that and purchase a subscription next week.

Thanks Fabian for your assistance :)
