That is correct, in your case you should set admin and trusted to 1 on your default nodemap. But that is not really the recommended way to work with nodemaps. The default nodemap should be restrictive so that unknown clients ending up in this group are not granted any privileges. And then you create specific nodemaps for your different uses cases.
Also, as explained in the Lustre Operations Manual in section 28.2.2: https://doc.lustre.org/lustre_manual.xhtml#idm139897458337088 The administrative site for the Lustre file system needs at least one group with both admin and trusted properties in order to perform maintenance or to perform administrative tasks. And, more importantly, Lustre server nodes *must* be in a policy group with both these properties set to 1.
