ceph status --cluster CLUSTER_NAME
where CLUSTER_NAME is the cluster name specified when creating the cluster in the Deployment Wizard (step 2).
This is often overlooked since the majority of manual Ceph installations do not bother with naming the Ceph cluster, and the default name is simply "ceph". So this param is rarely used in documentation.
Naming the cluster will make things cleaner for example when deploying several remote clusters and performing disk mirroring which we intend to support in the ui.
