Hi,

to check a current value use the following command on the machine where the OSD 
you want to check is running

ceph daemon osd.{id} config show | grep {parameter}
  Or
ceph daemon osd.{id} config get {parameter}

What you are seeing is actually a known glitch where you are being told it has 
no effect when in fact it does. See capture below
[root@luminous ceph-deploy]# ceph daemon osd.0 config get osd_max_backfills
{
    "osd_max_backfills": "1"
}
[root@luminous ceph-deploy]# ceph tell osd.* injectargs '--osd_max_backfills 2'
osd.0: osd_max_backfills = '2' rocksdb_separate_wal_dir = 'false' (not 
observed, change may require restart)
osd.1: osd_max_backfills = '2' rocksdb_separate_wal_dir = 'false' (not 
observed, change may require restart)
osd.2: osd_max_backfills = '2' rocksdb_separate_wal_dir = 'false' (not 
observed, change may require restart)
[root@luminous ceph-deploy]# ceph daemon osd.0 config get osd_max_backfills
{
    "osd_max_backfills": "2"
}

Regards
JC
