    The impact will be the same as if you were making the changes through the GUI or the CLI. As long as you aren't doing something crazy like 1000 requests/sec, I wouldn't be concerned about it.

     

     

    At what rate are you thinking you will be making changes?

    i have not defined yet the rate of changes but I think it will be like 100 ratio values change every 5 minutes balanced between members of different pool.

     

    Is there any chance I get a system failure after a long period?
