Ceph » Orchestrator

this is due to https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/9096 . Nothing we can do about this right now.

Thanks for the quick reply and the info. FYI and for the record, it seems that this error - as indicated in the podman bug report - comes up rather irregularly because after a new bootstrap attempt in a cloned Ubuntu system I got the error much later in the bootstrapping process:
