Yes, those two factors are basically only telling a pool on which OSDs
to move to, and can be set and reset as you want.
We have given some OSDs special device-class names (like ssd-rack-1)
so we later can point a pool to only choose those OSDs to place itself
on when migrating from older ssds to newer ones. In this case, the
type of replication/EC doesn't matter since it is not changing.

Also, if you screw this up (like asking a 7+3 pool to move to a list
of only 8 OSDs so it doesn't "fit") it will just make the PGs
"misplaced" and refuse to move, while still serving data, so you can
undo this choice.
