> Currently when {{redis-port=0}} the Redis service is not enabled. Recently we added the ability to pick an ephemeral port by setting {{redis-port=-1}}. However the typical norm is that a port of {{0}} should indicate the use of an ephemeral port.
> If we allow this then we need a different way of  enabling/disabling the service.
> One possibility is that the service is disabled when {{redis-port=-1}}. (or < 0). However anyone already setting the property to {{0}} would then suddenly activate the service.
> Another possibility is to add a new Geode property to explicitly enable/disable the service. (Off by default). That way users, switching to this version, would still experience the same behavior regardless of their {{redis-port}} setting.
