Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
When a user selects the auto-start option in the 'Create Geo-replication Session' user interface, the use_meta_volume option is not set. This means that the geo-replication session is started without a metadata volume, which is not a recommended configuration. Workaround: After session start, go to the geo-replication options tab for the master volume and set the use_meta_volume option to true.

Description Triveni Rao 2016-02-01 10:16:43 UTC
Description of problem:
=======================
use_meta_volume is not set to true when auto-start option is used for geo-rep session creation.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
=============================================================
Red Hat Gluster Storage Console Version: 3.1.2-0.70.el6

How reproducible:
=================
easily.

Steps to Reproduce:
===================
1.create 2 clusters with few nodes and create volumes. 
2.select a master volume and create a geo-rep session with available volume from another cluster opting for auto-start option.
3.check that geo-rep session created and started successfully.
4. if you check the geo-rep options tab for that master volume then use_meta_volume is not set to true. it will be showing false.

Actual results:
===============
 if you check the geo-rep options tab for that master volume then use_meta_volume is not set to true. it will be showing false.

Expected results:
=================
use-meta-volume option should be set to true if you are using auto-start option for geo-rep session creation from rhsc.

Additional info:
===============

Doc text is looks fine. to change the value of the parameter after geo-rep session start user has to go to geo-rep options tab for that master volume then check use_meta_volume option and then change that to true.
