After (successfully!) converting a single machine ceph to a multi machine ceph, I can confirm this is what any interaction with your ceph cluster and the ceph documentation feels like

A bomb defuseal, with snips, but all of the wires are blue

@benjojo After countless times creating a single-host ceph cluster, then adding a second monitor and watching it always go in an endless "probing" state… I stopped trying. 😭
Probably Cassandra set my bar too high, but why is any other cluster DB or filesystem so complex and fickle?
(I tried with 3 different versions, all nodes reach each other on both needed ports, zero errors in the logs even at 10/10 level… I did it all, again and again, including RTFS)

I hope you cluster will work better. 💪🏼
