Issue

  1. Rest API role (in case names 'test') created in the GUI with multiple privledges assigned:
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: client-IP:65399 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: POST /api/security/roles : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"name":"test","privileges":[{"access":"readonly","path":"/api"}]} :: Pending
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: client-IP:65399 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: POST /api/security/roles : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"name":"test","privileges":[{"access":"readonly","path":"/api"}]} :: Success:
    /api (readonly)
    /api/security (readonly)
    /api/security/authentication/password (all)
    /api/security/authentication/publickeys (all)
    ...
  2. A user (in case names 'user-01') created then deleted from the GUI:
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:50715 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: PATCH /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"applications":[{"application":" http","authentication_methods":["password"],"second_authentication_method":"none"}],"role":{"name":"test"}} :: Pending
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:50715 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: PATCH /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"applications":[{"application":" http","authentication_methods":["password"],"second_authentication_method":"none"}],"role":{"name":"test"}} :: Success:
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:58930 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: PATCH /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"password":***} :: Pending
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:58930 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: PATCH /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] {"password":***} :: Success:
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:63702 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: DELETE /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] :: Pending
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:63702 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: DELETE /api/security/accounts/account-uuid/user-01 : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] :: Success:
  3. Then the role get deleted from the GUI:
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:59811 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: DELETE /api/security/roles/account-uuid/test : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] :: Pending
    [kern_audit:info:3242] Vserver-01: http :: cluster-mgmt:59811 :: Vserver-01:admin:admin :: DELETE /api/security/roles/account-uuid/test : ["X-Dot-Client-App: SMv4"] :: Success:
  4. Confirmed the role no longer exists in CLI output of ::>security login role show
  5. However, the role test still remains in the GUI: (In case from Cluster -> Settings -> User and Roles -> Roles)
