-Access rbd through krbd kernel module. This is required if you want to
-use the storage for containers.
+Enforce access to rados block devices through the krbd kernel module. Optional.

+NOTE: Containers will use `krbd` independent of the option value.
-If you use `cephx` authentication, you need to copy the keyfile from
-Ceph to Proxmox VE host.
