I recommend not setting a custom cluster-name at all.
Gahh! I set up the cluster in Nov/Dec 2024 and at that time, the Ceph documentation seemed to encourage setting a cluster name (giving explicit examples how to do this) Initially, I set this up on reef, but switched to squid quite soon. Using a non-default cluster name "works", other than occasional sharp edges in various config files. I fear reverting to the default; there are just enough config settings to make this a weeklong task.
