Restart cinder-volume with Ceph rdb

Is this a new cluster, or one that has been running for a while?

Did you just setup integration with Ceph?

This part: "rbd:volumes at ceph-rbd" doesn't look right to me.  For me (Victoria / Nautilus) this looks like: <cinder-volume-host>:<name>.

name is configured in the cinder.conf with a [<name>] section, and enabled_backends=<name> in the [DEFAULT] section.
cinder-volume-host is something that resolves to the host running openstack-cinder-volume.service.

What version of OpenStack, and what version of Ceph are you running?

Thank you,

Thanks, I have restarted the service and I see that after a few minutes then cinder-volume service goes down again when I check it with the command openstack volume service list. 
The host/service that contains the cinder-volumes is rbd:volumes at ceph-rbd that is RDB in Ceph, so the problem does not come from Cinder, rather from Ceph or from the RDB (Ceph) pools that stores the volumes. I have checked Ceph and the status of everything is correct, no errors or warnings. 
The error I have is that cinder can’t  connect to rbd:volumes at ceph-rbd. Any further suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.
