Description krishnan parthasarathi 2012-07-31 12:20:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
"gluster volume set help (or help-xml)" is implemented as a cluster-wide operation. This makes querying for a static (and local) information more costly than it ought to be. This would make it prohibitive for any UI (eg. OVirt for glusterfs) built on top of glusterd.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mainline

How reproducible:
Consistent

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Issue "gluster volume set help" (or help-xml)
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
 Must notice messages exchanged among glusterd peers (eg. lock op, stage op, etc)

Expected results:
 Must not see any messages exchanged among peers on issuing gluster volume set help (or help-xml)
