> When disk devices are configured in storage.config for RAW mode they are 
> automatically initialized when traffic server first starts up. If disk device 
> names change later due to adding/removing disks or kernel changes 
> trafficserver will overwrite disks that the user may not want to be cache 
> disks. This leads to data loss on the affected disks.
> Maybe a feature could be added similar to squid's -z where cache disks must 
> be explicitly initialized before they can be used. Or a configuration 
> variable that changes trafficserver's initialization behavior. 
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: so, maybe have a few settings for the config
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 0 - Let it reinitialize cache as it likes
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 1 - Only initialize cache explicitly
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 2 - Only initialize cache explicitly, and refuse to start 
> up if we detect a cache disk with bad header
