Charlies,
Upgrading riaks version or switching the the storage backend is typically
best down by rolling in the new servers then rolling out the old servers.
This takes a while but keeps you downtime at ~0.  After the old servers are
removed you should be able to start using the riak's newest powers like
2i.
NOTE: As far as I know bitcask should worth with 2i, I presume you've also
update the riak version on your leveldb machines?
