Plus the default has been changed from NO to GROUP. And if you don't have
any COLLOCGROUPs defined, then it acts like NODE.

After 10-years of one default, I can't tell you how many times I've
forgotten about the NEW default.

Roger,

On the storage pool, is collocation set to Node or Group?  I've both
mis-clicked and mis-typed that setting more times than I'd want to admit.
