In the following recipe, we will discuss more Ceph user management by running some commands:
- To list the users in your cluster, execute the following command:
# ceph auth list

# ceph auth get client.admin
- Create a user, client.rbd:
# ceph auth get-or-create client.rbd
This will create the user, client.rbd, with no capabilities, and a user with no caps is of no use.
- Add capabilities to the client.rbd user and list the user's capabilities:
