Re: Balancer module not balancing perfectly

I was having a difficult time getting debug logs from the active mgr,
but I finally got it. Apparently injecting debug_mgr doesn't work, even
when the change is reflected when you query the running config.
Modifying the config file and restarting the mgr got it to log for me.

Now that I have some debug logging, I think I may see the problem.

'ceph config-key dump'

The mgr claims that mgr/balancer/upmap_max_iterations and
mgr/balancer/upmap_max_deviation aren't found in the config even though
they have been set and appear in the config-key dump. It seems to be
picking up the other config options correctly. Am I doing something
wrong? I feel like I must have a typo or something, but I'm not seeing
it.
