I see where /nonexistent/gsyncd is set.  It is basically part of some template file, right?  Can we just change the template file and replace /nonexistent/gsyncd with the real path that way this never comes up?  The problem here is that a customer is running in to this due to issues with running the create command for geo-replication.  They have a weird security software layer that puts some things in non-standard locations.

Fix to be done in $SRC/geo-replication/syncdaemon/configinterface.py.in

Handle this config key as special case.
Comment 7 Aravinda VK 2018-02-06 08:08:47 UTC 
Geo-replication support added to Glusterd2 project, which will be available with Gluster upstream 4.0 and 4.1 releases. 

Most of the issues already fixed with issue https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/issues/271 and remaining fixes are noted in issue https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/issues/557

We can close these issues since we are not planning any fixes for 3.x series.
