[Gluster-devel] Snapshot Scheduler

I don't know if I did something wrong, but I found the location that the
scheduler wanted the shared storage was problematic as I recall it was
under /run/gluster/snaps.  On CentOS 7 this failed to mount on boot.  I
hacked the scheduler to use a location under /var/lib.

I also think there needs to be a way to schedule the removal of snapshots.
