Hello Guys,

I have been trying to set a geo replication in our glusterfs test 
environment and got a problem with a message "invalid slave name"

So first things first...

I have 3 nodes configured in a cluster. Those nodes are configured as 
replica. On this cluster I have a volume created with let say name 
myvol1. So far everything works and looks good...

Next step was to create a geo replication off site.. So i followed this 
documentation:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/HowTo:geo-replication

I had peered the slave server, created secret.pem was able to ssh 
without the password and tried to create the geo replication volume with 
the code from the documentation and got the following error:

on master:
gluster volume geo-replication myvol1 1.2.3.4:/shared/myvol1_slave start

on master:

failed on localhost

there are no logs on slave what so ever
I also tried different documentation with "create push-pem" got the very 
same problem as above...

I tried to start the volume as node:/path/to/dir and also created a 
volume on slave and started as node:/slave_volume_name always a same 
result...

Tried to search for a solution and found this 
http://fpaste.org/114290/04117421/

It was different user with a very same problem... The issue was shown on 
IRC channel, but never answered..

This is a fresh install of 3.5.1, so no upgrade should be needed i 
guess... Any help solving this problem would be appreciated..

Thank you and best regards,
Stefan
