Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
master

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a gluster volume with a specific transport type.
  
Actual results:
Transport type can not be changed after creation.

Expected results:
There should be some way to change the transport type of volume. preferably volume set or some other cli command

We intentionally avoided doing this. I do not see too much value in providing this feature.

Aren't we going to support this use case? If yes, then this should be a feature request, if no, then what is the way to use different transport?
