Description of problem: For users installed ceph cluster using cockpit-installer and wants to upgrade their clusters to 4.1, we need to provide couple of steps before they follow existing steps - QE tried these following steps before existing steps and worked fine for us - 1) Copy inventory from default location to ceph-ansible folder 2) If user used non-root user as cockpit-installer user (ansible user) then change ssh-key permissions so that ansible-playbook can be run as non-root user

So these steps need to be added here, right? https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_ceph_storage/4/html-single/installation_guide/index?lb_target=preview#preparing-for-an-upgrade_install For 1, I know I saw where this was in the past but I can't remember. Can you tell me where the default location of the inventory file is when installed using cockpit and where to put it in ceph-ansible? Is it /etc/ansible/hosts? and where do you put it and what do you name it in /usr/share/ceph-ansible? For 2, can you show me specifically what this step should look like? The way the cockpit chapter is, you use the ansible user ("admin") to create the SSH keys and log in to cockpit. So in the upgrade section we also use the ansible user (admin) to run the playbooks... so why do ssh key permissions need to change?
