Running Spectrum 9.2.3 and systemEDGE 5.7.1
I have been receiving the same error message. The only way I can get it to work is by using an account that has administrative access to the cluster resources but that is not good security practice nor will it pass muster with our auditing.
I have a systemEDGE 5.7.1 with the MSCS AIM on a 2008 R2 server setup as a proxy. We are running 2008 R2 on our MS clusters.
I have a working AD account that we assigned read-only cluster resource access to per MS Technet

I have tried logging in with the following formats and get the same error as mentioned in this thread:
1. username
2. username@domain
3. domain\username
All fail with the same error,
I have tried to work with CA support but it turns out support does not have a set of procedures detailing what all needs to be done to setup an account with read-only access properly to work with this feature. I find this perplexing since the cluster management feature had to be tested and I WOULD assume it was not tested with only an admin account...
It was also suggested that I use an account with admin access to the cluster as Spectrum feature is read-only anyways. That is not going to fly with auditing....
