all other options. After adding the monitor to the cluster, it gives it some time
to start. It then looks for any monitor errors and checks monitor status. Monitor
- A list of monitors and their addresses. This list of monitors
can come from a monmap (``--monmap <path>``), the ``mon host``

monitor is to be part of the initial monitor quorum for a new
Ceph cluster, then it must be included in the initial list,
matching either the name or address of a monitor in the list.
