Hmm, I'm looking at the actual code here and I'm wrong. Those values should be used whenever you create a pool via the API, and it doesn't look like anything external to the monitor can change that. So you probably set these values in the [osd] section rather than the [mon] or [global] section, at a guess. (The monitor is the one who manages this data and so they need to have the values.) -Greg On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 11:03 AM, Jason Anderson <Jason.Anderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello Gregory, > > > > Thanks for the quick response.
