Ceph Create
Create an RBD image
Calls POST /api/block/image. Some Ceph versions process image creation asynchronously via the Dashboard task manager, so the follow-up fetch of the resulting image may briefly 404 right after the POST; this task retries it for up to ~10 seconds (10 attempts, 1s apart) before failing.

port integerstring
8443Ceph Dashboard port
TCP port of the Ceph Manager Dashboard REST API. Defaults to 8443.
skipSsl booleanstring

When true, disables TLS certificate verification. Useful when the Ceph Manager Dashboard uses a self-signed certificate, which is the default on most Ceph deployments. Defaults to false (secure): enable it explicitly and only for trusted networks.
token string
Pre-obtained JWT
A JWT obtained from POST /api/auth, used directly instead of username/password. Reused as-is for every request in the execution. It expires (Ceph default 8h TTL) and is NOT auto-renewed, so do not use it in triggers or scheduled flows; use username/password there instead. Mutually exclusive with password: when set, username/password are ignored.
username string
Username
Ceph Dashboard account used to obtain a session token from POST /api/auth. Required unless token is set.

obj_size integer
