Hi,
I'm trying to install Proxmox on 3 nodes and setup Ceph. Proxmox part works very well.
Problem begins while setting up Ceph. I followed this howto: http://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/1213-ceph-storage-on-proxmox. Each step is done without any problem.
But when instalation is finished and I want to create VM I'm getting this error:

rbd error: rbd: couldn't connect to the cluster! (500)



and VM is not created. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? I spent many hours trying to figure it out but I'm loosing my confidence :(
Thanks a lot in advance.

Did you copy the ceph admin keyring to match your storage ID?

The main ceph keyring 'ceph.client.admin.keyring' needs to be copy to /etc/pve/priv/ceph/ceph2.keyring
 
Yes!! This made the trick. Although I did a copy of keyring to match my storage ID in my previous installation but there was probably some other problem because it did not work even with matching keyrings. I forgot about it this time. Sorry..
