Hi, Yesterday I upgraded my smallest test system, 4 Raspberries 4B, from Pacific 16.2.7 (cephadm/containerized) to 17.2.0 using ceph orch upgrade start --ceph-version 17.2.0 It mostly worked ok, but wouldn't have finished without manual intervention. Apparently each time a mgr is upgraded the process creates new /etc/ceph/ceph.conf and /etc/ceph/ceph.client.admin.keyring files on all nodes. To do that it looks like it first copies the files to /tmp/etc/ceph/ceph.conf on the node, then changes owwner and permission and then tries to move the file into place. Unfortunately it changes owner/permission in way so that it doesn't have permission to write to and move the file resulting in somethig like this in an infinite (?) loop: 2022-04-27T09:03:45.032808+0000 mgr.ceph00.lpaijp (mgr.2314108) 605 : cephadm [ERR] executing refresh((['ceph00', 'ceph01', 'ceph02', 'ceph03'],)) failed.

And once finished restore the chown/chmod binaries and permissions. I wonder if anyone else has seen that on Intel/AMD machines? Looks like a pretty obvious problem with the process shooting itself in the permission foot, and on bigger clusters that process would be a time consuming pain.
