If you are using HaProxy as a front end to the cluster **without SSL**, you will need to create a user for the health checks to work properly. The user does not need to be able to access any databases, it just needs to be able to authenticate against the server.
If you are using HaProxy as a front end to the cluster **with SSL**, use default tcp checks to validate the service is available as HaProxy does not support the SSL settings for mysql.
If this is the first install, the `mariadb_cluster_bootstrap` variable will need to be set to true to bootstrap the cluster.
