This means slave gsyncd instance could not properly start up. To debug 
this further, we need to see the slave side logs. In your case, the 
following commands will set a debug log level for the slave (takes 
effect if done before starting the geo-replication session) and locate
its log file:

# gluster volume geo-replication /soft/venus config log-level DEBUG
# gluster volume geo-replication /soft/venus config log-file

The output of the latter will contain an unresolved parameter
${session-owner}. To get its actual value, run

# gluster volume geo-replication athena /soft/venus config session-owner

-- please post the content of the actual log file, path to which you get 
after the substitution. (Also, cf.

http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Gluster_3.2:_Configuring_Geo-replication

, slave-side logs are illustrated there.)
