This looks great to me: gives us a nice way to deal with varying disk sizes
across a cluster.

If I set -v 0, presumably the store directory is completely unused; would
this allow me to create a forward-only sheep, or would -v 0 need additional
special-casing for that to work right?

Best wishes,

Chris.
