[Gluster-devel] Release 3.12: Glusto run status

[Nigel Babu]

Why are we failing because the first "rebalance status" fails? Isn't it
supposed to check in a loop and wait until it succeeds?

Specifically, I think line 288 and 289 need to be removed
http://git.gluster.org/cgit/glusto-tests.git/tree/glustolibs-gluster/glustolibs/gluster/rebalance_ops.py#n288

Is that a fair assessment?
