[SOLVED] rbd error: rbd: listing images failed: (2) No such file or directory (500)

Do you have the keyring for the pool in place? If you disabled ceph auth, then you also need to remove the keyring for the storage.
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvesm.html#_authentication

Also add the question: Are the CEPH perhaps so busy deleting other VM's data that it can't handle this deletion request?"

Just had the exact same error... and after the big boy's deletion where done, and the ceph "stabilized" things just "work(TM)" again

Spoiler: problem and the gone after CEPH stabilized
