I like ceph-manage or something like that,
however that's probably too close to ceph-mgr which could get very confusing.
Looking at
thesaurus.com for manage, there are some other words that could be interesting
(there is a bunch so I'll only name a few):
- administer (so adm is a good candidate, which I know is already on the list)
- conduct
- govern
- handle
- maintain
- operate
- oversee
- run
- supervise
- command
- designate
- execute
- instruct
- steer
