(I can do in with qemu-rbd drive option) I see you got an answer for your actual question. I wanted to take a different angle. You should really avoid putting secrets on command lines, or in process environment. Those are readable to all local users. This is why I advocate keyring files. Alternatively, with qemu, the monitor command mechanism they have would let you add the drives, before starting up the vm, without the secrets being visible to others. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
