When the group was set up, two passwords were set. For for grpadmin and the other for the "membership" password. That 2nd password is needed in order to add another member to the group.
This solution from the EQL support site covers how to change that. It's also in the Admin guide.
Solution Title ARRAY: How to set the group-membership password (to add an array)
Solution Details From the GUI,
Select "+members" in the left pane (not one of the member "name"s, the "+members" icon itself at the top of the members list). Then click "Set Password" which is just to the right in the Activities column. Most customers typically set this to be the same as the grpadmin password, for simplicity, if that doesn't compromise security.
From the CLI,
> grpparams passwd
Password for adding new members:
retype password:
password has been changed

Try "grpadmin" as Group password because it may can be the default.
A lot of people change the Password for the user "grpadmin" later but not the Group password which doesnt have a user and is independent.
