your incorrectly using the apply command. you can either use 'ceph orch appy rgw ...." to apply a rgw spec via cli parameters or you can use 'ceph orch apply -i spec.yml' to apply a spec via yaml file

you cant combined 'ceph orch apply rgw ..." and a spec file


in your  example above your doing this "ceph orch apply rgw  rgw.movies  rgw1.yaml"

the correct way to apply your spec file would be "ceph orch apply -i rgw1.yaml"



whats actually happening for you is  your calling the 'apply rgw' cli'     

>>> orch apply rgw <svc_id> [<realm>] [<zone>] [<port:int>] [--ssl]    Update the number of RGW instances for the given zone
>>>  [<placement>] [--dry-run] [--format {plain|json|json-pretty|      
>>>  yaml}] [--unmanaged] [--no-overwrite] 


with the <svc_id> as "rgw.movies" and [<realm>] as "rgw1.yaml"

you can see that is confirmed in the output from the "ceph orch  ls rgw -f yaml" command 

"service_id: rgw.movies"

"spec:
  rgw_realm: rgw1.yaml"

all other parameters of the spec where then defaults. for example the placement was 'count:2



in my test everything works as it should when applied correctly

>>> [ceph: root@vm-00 /]# cat spec.yml 
>>> service_type: rgw
>>> service_id: rgw.movies
>>> placement:
>>>   hosts:
>>>   - vm-00
>>> spec:
>>>   rgw_frontend_port: 8080
>>> [ceph: root@vm-00 /]# 
>>> [ceph: root@vm-00 /]# ceph orch apply -i spec.yml 
>>> Scheduled rgw.movies update...
