Gluster users - Sep 2015 - Setting up geo replication with GlusterFS 3.6.5

Hello,

I am using the following documentation in order to setup geo replication between
two sites
http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users.old/2015-January/020080.html

Unfortunately the step:

gluster volume geo-replication myvolume gfsgeo at gfs1geo.domain.com::myvolume
create push-pem

Fails with the following error:

Unable to fetch slave volume details. Please check the slave cluster and slave
volume.
geo-replication command failed

Any ideas?

btw: the documentation 
http://gluster.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/Geo%20Replication/index.html
 does not seem to work with GlusterFS 3.6.5 that's why I am using the other
mentioned documentation. It fails at the mountbroker step (
gluster system:: execute mountbroker opt mountbroker-root /var/mountbroker-root)

Regards
ML

Hi,

<< Unable to fetch slave volume details. Please check the slave cluster 
and slave volume. geo-replication command failed
Have you checked whether you are able to reach the Slave node from the 
master node?

There is a super simple way of setting up geo-rep written by Aravinda.
Refer:
http://blog.gluster.org/2015/09/introducing-georepsetup-gluster-geo-replication-setup-tool-2/

Refer the README for both usual (root user based) and 
mountbroker(non-root) setup details here:
https://github.com/aravindavk/georepsetup/blob/master/README.md

Thanks,
Saravana
