Can you confirm me these 2 points? i) In fact, the "host" parameter is needed only if in ceph.conf there are multiple [client.radosgw.{instance-name}] sections for different radosgw servers. If there are only the sections [client.radosgw.{instance-name}] which concern the current radosgw server, the "host" parameter is useless. In fact, everything happens as if the default value of the "host" parameter in the [client.radosgw.{instance-name}] was $(hostname). ii) The {instance-name} in [client.radosgw.{instance-name}] must be necessarily unique _in_ the cluster, _not_ unique by radosgw server. Is it correct? > b) Is it a bad idea if I use the same keyring (and so the same ceph account) > in the 2 radosgw servers "rgw-01" and "rgw-02"? I'm still interested by this question. I know it's possible to use the same keyring (ie the same ceph account) in multiple radosgw servers but I don't know if it's recommended or not.
