The files are located at the paths shown above on any MicroCeph node.
Moving forward, we will assume that these files are located at mentioned path.

After 'ceph-common' package installation, 'ceph' command will start looking at the '/etc/ceph/' directory for keyring and conf files, which is not the correct place.
This could cause CLI errors similar to this:

.. code-block:: none

Error initializing cluster client: ObjectNotFound('RADOS object not found (error calling conf_read_file)')

To fix this, 'microceph.ceph' command can be used instead of 'ceph'. To continue using 'ceph' commands as usual, keyring and conf files must be linked to the '/etc/ceph/' directory as follows:

.. code-block:: none

$ sudo ln -s /var/snap/microceph/current/conf/ceph.conf /etc/ceph/
$ sudo ln -s /var/snap/microceph/current/conf/ceph.keyring /etc/ceph/

Also look at line 126, 127. These would have to be removed as we are explicitly providing the conf paths.
