Setting Local Configuration Parameters

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1867-
Use the following steps to set local configuration parameters for an
1868-
account, zone, cluster, or primary storage. These values will override
1869-
the global configuration settings.
1867+
Configurations can also be set at more granular levels or scopes.
1868+
1869+
#. Domain
1870+
#. Account
1871+
#. Zone
1872+
#. Cluster
1873+
#. Primary Storage
1874+
#. Secondary Storage
1875+
1876+
All local settings can be configured at a global level as well.
1877+
If set, the local setting takes precedence over the global setting.
1878+
1879+
Some configurations can be set at multiple levels or scopes.
1880+
For example, the following configuration parameters can be set at the
1881+
Zone scope and the Primary Storage scope.
1882+
1883+
* pool.storage.capacity.disablethreshold
1884+
* pool.storage.allocated.resize.capacity.disablethreshold
1885+
* pool.storage.capacity.disablethreshold
1886+
* volume.resize.allowed.beyond.allocation
1887+
1888+
In this case also the more granular setting (Primary Storage)
1889+
overrides the broader setting (Zone).
