ON can't deploy or monitor a host after the SSH key of the sunstone node was changed

So, I changed the SSH key generated by ON to one that has a passphrase and added it through ssh-add. Sunstone can ssh to node without any password, but I keep getting these errors while trying to deploy:

Error from oned.log regarding the error in monitoring:

Have you changed the one_auth files and Oneadmin password in the database?

No, I haven’t.

I did it during the initial install, but not after that.

OpenNebula does not use ssh agent so the key must be without a password. You can connect because you’ve added the key to your ssh agent. Run ssh-add -L in terminal at your workstantion/laptop and if it show the opennebula’s public key that is the case.

Hope this helps.
