This indicates that there is no ping mechanism between GlusterDs now. We
have had some issues from snapshot use cases when we tried to enable
ping timer in glusterd, the solution to it was multi threaded epoll and
when we enabled it then we got to see some corruption and crashes which
are yet to be RCAed. So we decided to turn both these features off till
we get to the root cause.
