Works for me.

Actually, thinking about it a bit more, I don't think ceph-deploy usage has to change at all. The old way was 1. ceph-create-keys creates and installs the keys on the mons 2. ceph-deploy gatherkeys or create-initial slurps them up We can just change ceph-deploy so it creates and stores them locally, and doesn't store them on the mons at all. Users don't get the side-effect that the mons have the keys installed, but that is arguably better anyway. > https://github.com/SUSE/ceph-deploy/commit/58b030dbe0a964b32f1fbc9a3762e64dd74bf50c Instead of this, it should do the same steps as ceph-create-keys (use the mon. internal key to authenticate to create the admin and bootstrap keys), but just write them to the local ceph-dpeloy work dir. sage -- 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
