TBH, the passwordless ssh configured by "push-pem" option is very 
specific to gluster (gsyncd to be more specific). But this will used 
after the session is created. During the create gluster need the 
passwordless ssh to get the details of the slave cluster (it's status, 
available size, files present or not etc).

So you need to have passwordless ssh from one node in master to one in 
slave *only* during the "geo-rep create push-pem". After session 
created, you can actually remove the passwordless ssh and Ideally 
geo-rep should still work.
