Document URL: 

man 8 gluster

Section Number and Name: 

COMMANDS -> Volume Commands

Describe the issue: 

No man-page reference for `disperse-data` parameter when creating a new volume (gluster(8)):
---
        volume create <NEW-VOLNAME> [stripe <COUNT>] [replica <COUNT>] [disperse [<COUNT>]] [redundancy <COUNT>] [transport <tcp|rdma|tcp,rdma>] <NEW-BRICK> ...
              Create a new volume of the specified type using the specified bricks and transport type (the default transport type is tcp).  To create a volume  with  both  transports  (tcp  and  rdma),  give
              'transport tcp,rdma' as an option.
---

However "Usage:" message shows disperse-data:
---
volume create <NEW-VOLNAME> [stripe <COUNT>] [replica <COUNT> [arbiter <COUNT>]] [disperse [<COUNT>]] [disperse-data <COUNT>] [redundancy <COUNT>] [transport <tcp|rdma|tcp,rdma>] <NEW-BRICK>?<vg_name>... [force]
---

Suggestions for improvement: 

Add disperse-data to "man 8 gluster" explaining its utilization scenario.

https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/23258 Updates the gluster manual with 'disperse-data <count>' but does not include details about utilization scenerio. Please refer here[https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_gluster_storage/3.1/html/administration_guide/chap-red_hat_storage_volumes-creating_dispersed_volumes_1] for the utilization scenerio.
