Hi Pablo,  
We would like to use opensearch security plugin, but failing execute the securityadmin script, see issue we are facing in following topic:

[https://forum.opensearch.org/t/opensearch-tarball-installation-securityadmin-sh-unavailableshardsexception-opendistro-security-0-primary-shard-is-not-active-timeout/7426/3](https://forum.opensearch.org/t/opensearch-tarball-installation-securityadmin-sh-unavailableshardsexception-opendistro-security-0-primary-shard-is-not-active-timeout/7426/3)

so mainly we disabled it using **plugins.security.disabled: true** in order to proceed to OpenSearch Dashboards setup and permanently we would like to enable it , for first installation with testing in this env we can disable
