Hello, I ran into some problems with authenticating with built-in users (in this case elastic
) on my cluster nodes other than the master.
I have a cluster setup on 8.5.3:
- 3 master nodes
- 4 data nodes
- 2 coordinator nodes
I have done:
- First time interactive password setup for built in users
- Added
xpack.security.authc.realms.native.native1.order: 0
in config
Other than the master, none of the other nodes are able to authenticate the elastic
user.
The log shows that:
Authentication of [elastic] was terminated by realm [reserved] was terminated by realm [reserved] - failed to authenticate user [elastic]
This is tested via simple http requests to https://<node-hostname>:9200
with the elastic
user credentials.
Is this behavior intended?
I have also tested that the nodes are able to authenticate these other types of users with no issues:
- Native users - created via `/_security/name/
- AD users (after adding license)
