Keys Management¶
Gather Keys¶
Before you can provision a host to run OSDs or metadata servers, you must gather monitor keys and the OSD and MDS bootstrap keyrings. To gather keys, enter the following:
ceph-deploy gatherkeys {monitor-host}
Note
To retrieve the keys, you specify a host that has a Ceph monitor.
Note
If you have specified multiple monitors in the setup of the cluster,
make sure, that all monitors are up and running. If the monitors haven’t
formed quorum, ceph-create-keys will not finish and the keys are not
generated.
Forget Keys¶
When you are no longer using ceph-deploy (or if you are recreating a
cluster), you should delete the keys in the local directory of your admin host.
To delete keys, enter the following:
ceph-deploy forgetkeys
