Comment #6 on issue 990 by [email protected]: "gnt-cluster verify" not using ssh-agent
https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/issues/detail?id=990

Hi!

I had a look at this, and I think what you are describing is actually intended by design.

When initializing and adding cluster nodes, ganeti (tries to use) the agent, because in order add a node, it would need some kind ssh connection for the operations necessary to add the nodes. This could be the key loaded in an agent or a key of the master node that is manually added to the new node.

However, after adding nodes, Ganeti assumes that is has all keys etc. to reach all nodes without having to rely on a user logged in and having a key loaded in an agent. For example you could run 'gnt-cluster verify' in the middle of the night with a cron job, you also don't necessarily have a key loaded.

So, it is actually intended, that each node has an id_dsa file and removing it makes Ganeti indeed unhappy.

I am sorry I am getting to this so late, I misread the bug at first.

I am closing this for now. Feel free to revive the discussion if you have more points for your use case.
