Issues configuring hot/warm limits on index size

[jfontenot]

I am trying to limit the hot/warm index size for several indexes using the homepath.maxDataSizeMB command, however we restarting splunk I get the following error:

Invalid key in stanza [main] in /indexes.conf, line 112: homepath.maxDataSizeMB (value: 5000).

Here is the stanza I have configured for that index.

[main]
homePath = volume:hot/defaultdb/db
coldPath = volume:cold/defaultdb/colddb
thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB/defaultdb/thaweddb
homepath.maxDataSizeMB = 5000

I feel like I'm missing something simple and I can't figure out what it is.

The "p" in "homepath" must be capitalized. 

[main]
homePath = volume:hot/defaultdb/db
coldPath = volume:cold/defaultdb/colddb
thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB/defaultdb/thaweddb
homePath.maxDataSizeMB = 5000

That worked, thanks so much for your help!
