The best way to setup SSH is to use a ~/.ssh/config file.... It solves a lot of issues! Example: ~/.ssh/config Host ceph1 cephosd1 HostName 192.168.1.10 User ceph Host ceph2 cephosd2 HostName 192.168.1.11 User ceph With that you can just do a "ssh ceph1" for example... All other SSH options are available in the config file. You can also spread this file with automation tools like ansible.
