all but the standard file descriptors.  This fixed a really hard to
debug test failure. (A server started after a client storage was
started had the client storage's cache loc file open, preventing the
client storage from being reopened.)

For starting servers, the storage config not defaults to a simple
file-storage configuration.

Use a simple log file configuration for the storage server rather than
trying to somehow copy the useless test log configuration. This makes
it far more likely that there will be a sever log available when
debugging test failures.
