Admin control over a server's ability to "Allow Recording"

My apologies, but I am not entirely sure how to phrase my question. I know that I have the ability to impose the Library > Allow Recording from my own server to my own client devices. I am wondering, is it possible to impose this setting with an env command (or other such option) within a Kubernetes environment?

I am looking at the possibility of allowing a few people to host their Channels DVR servers within a Kubernetes environment. However, I don't want to give them the ability to enable/allow recordings unless they supplier their own storage mount for those purposes.

Maybe they might still be able to toggle it on, but perhaps the env command would reset it to being disabled on each restart.
