geo-rep-cli: added a new option "no-verify" to geo-rep create.
This patch adds a new option called as "no-verify" to geo-rep create command. With no-verify option, following checks does not take place before session creation: * if ssh port 22 is open in slave * has proper passwordless ssh login setup * slave volume is created and is empty * if slave has enough memory This option is needed by ovirt-engine as the tasks done by push-pem is taken care by ovirt-engine and also the above checks are done. Thus creation of password-less ssh can be avoided when geo-replication is managed through ovirt. Usage: volume geo-replication [<VOLNAME>] [<SLAVE-URL>] { create [[no-verify]|[push-pem]] [force]| start [force]|stop [force]|pause [force]| resume [force]|config|status [detail]| delete } [options...] Change-Id: I975265f27d6434be5409438257d09cd4190c9159 BUG: 1198615 Signed-off-by: darshan n <dnarayan@redhat.com> Reviewed-on: http://review.gluster.org/9799 Reviewed-by: Aravinda VK <avishwan@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Kotresh HR <khiremat@redhat.com> Tested-by: Gluster Build System <jenkins@build.gluster.com> Reviewed-by: Krishnan Parthasarathi <kparthas@redhat.com> Tested-by: Krishnan Parthasarathi <kparthas@redhat.com>

If the total available size in slave volume is less than the total size of master, the command will throw error message. In such cases 'force' option can be used.
+In use cases where the rsa-keys of nodes in master volume is distributed to slave nodes through an external agent and slave side verifications like:
+- if ssh port 22 is open in slave
+- has proper passwordless ssh login setup
+- slave volume is created and is empty
+- if slave has enough memory
+is taken care by the external agent, the following command can be used to create geo-replication:
+```sh
+gluster volume geo-replication <master_volume> <slave_host>::<slave_volume> create no-verify [force]
+```
+In this case the master node rsa-key distribution to slave node does not happen and above mentioned slave verification is not performed and these two things has to be taken care externaly.
