Client Configuration
====================

Updating Client Configuration
-----------------------------

Certain client configurations can be applied at runtime. To check if a configuration option can be applied (taken into affect by a client) at runtime, use the `config help` command::

   ceph config help debug_client
    debug_client - Debug level for client
    (str, advanced)                                                                                                                      Default: 0/5
    Can update at runtime: true

    The value takes the form 'N' or 'N/M' where N and M are values between 0 and 99.  N is the debug level to log (all values below this are included), and M is the level to gather and buffer in memory.  In the event of a crash, the most recent items <= M are dumped to the log file.

`config help` tells if a given configuration can be applied at runtime along with the defaults and a description of the configuration option.

To update a configuration option at runtime, use the `config set` command::

   ceph config set client debug_client 20/20

Note that this changes a given configuration for all clients.

To check configured options use the `config get` command::

   ceph config get client
    WHO    MASK LEVEL    OPTION                    VALUE     RO 
    client      advanced debug_client              20/20          
    global      advanced osd_pool_default_min_size 1            
    global      advanced osd_pool_default_size     3
