CertifiedUpdate a Ceph pool
Ceph Update
Update a Ceph pool
Calls PUT /api/pool/{pool_name} with only the fields explicitly set, then returns the updated pool. Some Ceph versions process pool updates asynchronously via the Dashboard task manager, so the follow-up fetch may briefly 404 right after the PUT; this task retries it for up to ~10 seconds (10 attempts, 1s apart) before failing.

When true, disables TLS certificate verification. Useful when the Ceph Manager Dashboard uses a self-signed certificate, which is the default on most Ceph deployments. Defaults to false (secure): enable it explicitly and only for trusted networks.
token string
Pre-obtained JWT
A JWT obtained from POST /api/auth, used directly instead of username/password. Reused as-is for every request in the execution. It expires (Ceph default 8h TTL) and is NOT auto-renewed, so do not use it in triggers or scheduled flows; use username/password there instead. Mutually exclusive with password: when set, username/password are ignored.
username string
Username
Ceph Dashboard account used to obtain a session token from POST /api/auth. Required unless token is set.
