[Gluster-users] Question about geo-replication and deletes in 3.5 beta train

"ignore-deletes" is only valid in the initial crawl mode[1] where it does
not propagate deletes to the slave (changelog mode does). Was the session
restarted by any chance?

[1] Geo-replication now has two internal operations modes: a one shot
filesystem crawl mode (used to replicate data already present in a volume)
and the changelog mode (for replicating live changes).

Thanks,
