Hello, I am fighting with rbd and CEPH_ARGS in order to make typing easier on a client. First I created a keyring on one of the ceph nodes: # ceph auth add client.rainer mon 'profile rbd' osd 'profile rbd' added key for client.rainer Then I added this keyring to /etc/ceph/ceph.keyring on a client machine. # cat /etc/ceph/ceph.keyring: [client.rainer] key = xxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxyxy== Now on the client I try: # rbd ls 2020-01-20 14:15:49.124 7fa9191f0700 -1 monclient(hunting): handle_auth_bad_method server allowed_methods [2] but i only support [2] 2020-01-20 14:15:49.124 7fa9189ef700 -1 monclient(hunting): handle_auth_bad_method server allowed_methods [2] but i only support [2] rbd: couldn't connect to the cluster! rbd: listing images failed: (1) Operation not permitted Using the --name arg things work good: # rbd ls --name client.rainer <list of rbds> ... Now to make typing easier I tried: # export CEPH_ARGS="--name client.rainer --keyring=/etc/ceph/ceph.keyring" # rbd ls 2020-01-20 14:18:33.367 7f691177c700 -1 monclient(hunting): handle_auth_bad_method server allowed_methods [2] but i only support [2] rbd: couldn't connect to the cluster! rbd: listing images failed: (1) Operation not permitted According to the documentation this should work, but it seems it doesn't. Something I am doing wrong or is this a bug?
