2. touch /<mastermnt>
3. Start geo-rep and wait till the status is changelog crawl
4. Configure sync-jobs to 1
   gluster vol geo-rep <master> <slavehost>::<slavevol> config sync-jobs 1
5. Configure sync engine to tarssh
   gluster vol geo-rep <master> <slavehost>::<slavevol> config sync-method tarssh
6. Stop the geo-rep
7. Do the I/O on mastermnt as mentioned
   for i in {1..10000}
   do
      echo "sample data" > /<mastermnt>/file$i
