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?

Hmm, it looks like this was unintentionally broken globally throughout Ceph in commit 7f23142f5ccc5ac8153d32b2c9a8353593831967 back in the mimic release. Previously, the CEPH_ARGS environment overrides were combined with the command-line arguments near startup, but now they are not combined until after numerous early arguments are parsed (e.g. "name", "id", "cluster", "conf", etc). I'll open a tracker ticket against this issue.
