    """Given a configuration dictionary, make any modifications required
    by the driver.
    The default behavior is to make no changes.
    This method gives a driver the opportunity to modify configuration
    settings that affect its performance.  For example, if a driver can
    support hardware archive record generation, but software archive record
    generation is preferred, the driver can change that parameter using
    this method.
