Versioncheck = false not working, how to disable versioncheck

Graylog ‘versioncheck = false’ configuration option not working.

Graylog version: Graylog 3.3.13

I have deployed Graylog with helm chart to kubernetes as replicated service. On the chart I have set versioncheck = false like this: --set graylog.config="versionchecks=false"

This works, and adds the line to graylog configuration that is visible inside the pod in this file:
/usr/share/graylog/config/graylog.conf

But this is not working, any thoughts?

Couple things I’m wondering, in the documentation there is no mention about disabling the versionchecking (https://docs.graylog.org/docs/server-conf)?

On the pod, the file location is different from the document (not under /etc -folder): https://docs.graylog.org/v1/docs/file-locations

Is there a way to check from the UI is the versioncheck disabled, or any other configuration that is set on the config file, just to make sure?

Hello
My knowledge is not that good with Docker/chart but here is some more documention for you type of installment.

Thank you! From the link to documentation provided: " The bundled configuration files are stored in /usr/share/graylog/data/config/ inside the Docker container."

So it seems that the configuration is set correctly. I will give more specific info as soon as possible.

EDIT: The setting has “kicked in” about 24h after setting it, no more traces about polling the new version. I’m happy, but little bit unsure what happened, no restart or anything what so ever…
