Dmitry, the Protocol Buffer interface doesn't yet support setting most of the available bucket properties. Support for doing that was added just recently though.
For now the easiest workaround is to just use the REST API, for which you'll need the binaries. Both binaries and atoms work, but for the REST API it's best to use binaries as it doesn't handle atoms. Mathias Meyer Developer Advocate, Basho Technologies On Dienstag, 17.
