Description

Most of the current options for alter disk-store relate to modifying the disk store files, not the configuration. For example, there is no way to change the 'auto-compact' option or 'allow-force-compact' option. Generally, it appears most of the facilities that would change/alter the configuration in the cluster.xml aren't available.

Also - I suspect as a result of this, some features should be allowed to be made online as opposed to offline. Currently 'alter disk-store' can only be performed on offline disk-stores.
