[lustre-discuss] Disabling max creates and migrating data doesn't seem to be reducing the usage on an OST

Good Morning,
One of the OSTs in a lustre file system I manage is showing a higher usage. I attempted to stop writes by setting the max_create_count to zero and then moving data off it but that doesn't seem to be working.
> lfs df | grep OST:15lustre19-OST000f_UUID 71145018368 62653382656 8491631616 89% /lustre19[OST:15]
MDS> lctl set_param osp.lustre19-OST000f*.max_create_count=0
MDS> lctl get_param osp.lustre19-OST000f*.max_create_count
losp.lustre19-OST000f-osc-MDT0000.max_create_count=0
lfs find /lustre19/expphy/volatile --ost lustre19-OST000f -size +50M | lfs_migrate -y
I've been watching it, and the ost in question isn't shrinking. I can see its size usage go down a bit... and then tick up a bit
w/r,
