As you see your RRD file is still supporting COUNTER type. This is 
because the current implementation doesn't take into account these 
parameters from the request - it takes them from service.properties 
instead. So in fact in order to change it you would have to change 
service.properties file.
To be honest you are probably the first person to try using store 
functionality. This was probably dead end as I haven't heard anybody 
using it in their network (everybody uses MRTG, Cacti, etc).
