+=================
+ Keys Management
+=================
+
+
+Gather Keys
+===========
+
+Before you can provision a host to run OSDs or metadata servers, you must gather
+monitor keys and the OSD and MDS bootstrap keyrings. To gather keys, enter the
+following::
+
+ ceph-deploy gatherkeys {monitor-host}
+
+
+.. note:: To retrieve the keys, you specify a host that has a
+ Ceph monitor.
+
+.. note:: If you have specified multiple monitors in the setup of the cluster,
+ make sure, that all monitors are up and running. If the monitors haven't
+ formed quorum, ``ceph-create-keys`` will not finish and the keys are not
+ generated.
+
+Forget Keys
+===========
+
+When you are no longer using ``ceph-deploy`` (or if you are recreating a
+cluster), you should delete the keys in the local directory of your admin host.
+To delete keys, enter the following::
+
+ ceph-deploy forgetkeys
+
