That's correct. The server where in I was running 0.8.1.1 was not honoring this parameter, despite the fact it was set in it server.properties. Not sure if this fact would play any role, the server which was running 0.8.0 was the leader for all the topics and partition in my setup. And the second server running 0.8.1.1 has all the replicas (follower).
