> Summary :
> When running multiple clusters and managing storage-conf.xml options via an 
> external mechanism such as puppet, it is possible to induce unwanted behavior 
> by giving a node a conf file containing a new ClusterName.
> Behavior in current trunk :
> 1) Running node which is part of ClusterName "A"  stops.
> 2) storage-conf.xml gets new ClusterName "B" (by accident, one presumes).
> 3) Node starts and tries to participate in ClusterName "B", but has a very 
> hard time of it because it is configured to participate in cluster "A". "Bad 
> things" happen.
> Requested behavior : 
> 1) Node from ClusterName "A" stops.
> 2) storage-conf.xml gets new ClusterName "B"
> 3) Node notices that the node already has configuration state for a different 
> ClusterName and errors and refuses to start, preserving its current state.
