If you have modprpw your box must be in trusted mode so you need to use modprpw. You can obtain the list of groups a user in currently in via groups or grget commands. Then check to see if you need to add the user at all. He might already be in the group in question. If not, construct a new list of groups by adding yours to any pre-existing groups.

sam_overview
SAM_OVERVIEW(8) Corosync Cluster Engine Programmer's Manual SAM_OVERVIEW(8)
NAME
sam_overview - Overview of the Simple Availability Manager
OVERVIEW
The SAM library provide a tool to check the health of an application. The main purpose of SAM is to restart a local process when it fails
to respond to a healthcheck request in a configured time interval.
During sam_initialize(3), a duplicate copy of the process is created using the fork(3) system call. This duplicate process copy contains
the logic for executing the SAM server. The SAM server is responsible for requesting healthchecks from the active process, and controlling
the lifecycle of the active process when it fails. If the active process fails to respond to the healthcheck request sent by the SAM
server, it will be sent a user configurable signal (default SIGTERM) to request shutdown of the application. After a configured time
interval, the process will be forcibly killed by being sent a SIGKILL signal. Once the active process terminates, the SAM server will cre-
ate a new active process.
The Simple Availability Manager is meant to be used in conjunction with the cpg service. Used together, it is possible to restart a cpg
process that fails healthchecking during operation.
The main features of SAM include:
o A configurable recovery policy.
o A configurable time interval for health check operations.
o A notification via signal before recovery action is taken.
o A mechanism to indicate to the application the number of times an active process has been created by the SAM server.
o Both application driven health checking and event driven health checking.
Initializing SAM
The SAM library is initialized by sam_initialize(3). sam_initalize(3) may only be called once per process. Calling it more then once has
undefined results and is not recommended or tested.
Setting warning callback
User configurable signal (default SIGTERM) is sent to the application when a recovery action is planned. The application can use the sig-
nal(3) system call to monitor for this signal.
There are no special constraints on what SAM apis may be called in a warning callback. After time_interval expires, a SIGKILL signal is
sent to the active process to force its termination.
Registering the active process
The active process is registered with SAM by calling sam_register(3). This function should only be called one time in a process. After a
recovery action is taken, the new active process will begin execution at the next line of code in a user process after sam_register(3).
Enabling event driven healthchecking
Two types of healthchecking are available to the user. The first model is one where the user application healthchecks during its normal
operation. It is never requested to healtcheck, and if the active process doesn't respond within the time interval, the process will be
restarted.
A more useful mechanism for healthchecking is event driven healthchecking. Because this model is directed by the SAM server, It isn't nec-
essary to guess or add timers to the active process to signal a healthcheck operation is successful. To use event driven healthchecking,
the sam_hc_callback_register(3) function should be executed.
