I could resolve this by adding user 'admin' to sudoers list.. I added the user to 'wheel' user. With this I can run all commands with a sude appended..
Thanks for your help.. :)

Hi Andrew,
Yes I tried 'pcs' commands. Even they do not work, they throw the same error.

These are OS-level security mechanisms.
Adding admin to the haclient group doesn't magically give you the ability to run commands like 'service' or modify files as root.
You tried 'pcs cluster start' too?
