hello,
I am running 3 node proxmox cluster on version 8.4.0.Installing ceph does not work. Getting the following errors...

Code:
ARN: Enterprise repository selected, but no active subscription!
update available package list
E: Failed to fetch https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-quincy/dists/bookworm/InRelease  401  Unauthorized [IP: 144.217.225.162 443]
E: The repository 'https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-quincy bookworm InRelease' is not signed.
start installation
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package ceph-volume
apt failed during ceph installation (25600)



Even if I edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list to use no-subscription repository pveceph install would update it to the enterprise repository and fail.
 
Hi @zccq, welcome to the forum.

The repository should not be automatically changed to enterprise. Perhaps you can use GUI (Datacenter>Nodes>[node]>Repositories) to disable the Enterprise repos and enable no-sub ones.
Make sure to run "apt update" or "Refresh" from the GUI after you changed the repos.
