Hi Dave, Thank you so much for getting back to me.
the command returns the same errors:
[root@xen02 ~]# virsh pool-create ceph.xml
error: Failed to create pool from ceph.xml
error: Invalid secret: virSecretFree
[root@xen02 ~]#
the secret was precreated for the user admin that I use elsewhere with no
issues (rbd mount, cephfs etc.), and per the ceph documentation, i just set
the secret value with this command
virsh secret-set-value $(cat uuid) --base64 $(cat client.admin.key)
where the key is obtained from
ceph auth list
and uuid is generated by
virsh secret-define --file secret.xml
# cat secret.xml
<secret ephemeral='no' private='no'>
<usage type='ceph'>
<name>client.admin $(cat client.admin.key)</name>
</usage>
</secret>
