Hi, Looking at the code I see that the MON (mon/OSDMonitor.cc) and OSD (osd/OSD.cc) use the configuration setting osd_heartbeat_grace. The name *osd* suggest that it's only read by the OSDs, but according to the source it doesn't seem to be the case. bool OSDMonitor::check_failure(utime_t now, int target_osd, failure_info_t& fi) { ... utime_t orig_grace(g_conf->osd_heartbeat_grace, 0); ... } bool OSDMonitor::prepare_failure(MonOpRequestRef op) { ... utime_t failed_since = m->get_recv_stamp() - utime_t(m->failed_for ? m->failed_for : g_conf->osd_heartbeat_grace, 0); ... } Before I submit a PR to update the docs, am I reading the code correctly?
