One other question... Is there a way to set a config variable to turn off the compression for the rsync?
You can use "rsync-options" to specify any rsync options that you want to rsync to use. Just make sure that it does not conflict with the default rsync options used by geo-rep.

For example,

#gluster volume geo-replication <MASTER> <SLAVE> config rsync-options '--bwlimit=<value>'

I was hoping someone could help me debug my geo-replication under gluster 3.5.2. 
 
I am trying to use geo-replication to create a lagged backup of my data. What I wanted to do was to turn off the geo-replication (gluster volume geo-replication homegfs gfsib01bkp.corvidtec.com::homegfs_bkp stop) during the day, and then turn it back on at midnight to allow the remote system to sync. 
 
If I stop the geo-replication, delete a file, and then restart the geo-replication, the deletion never shows up on the slave system.  From the website below, I thought that it would pick up these changes.  Any suggestions for how I can get the changes made while the geo-replication is stopped to propagate after restart the geo-replication?
This is a known issue with glusterfs-3.5.2. The problem is xsync can not handle deletes and renames. So when you restart the geo-rep, the change detection mechanism falls back to xsync even though the Changelog was ON, the whole time. So deletes and renames won't be propagated to slave in 3.5.2

The patch to fix this issue is already submitted and is present in glusterfs master branch. The fix should be available in glusterfs-3.6 soon.

gluster volume geo-replication <master_volume> <slave_volume>::<slave_volume> stop [force]

Force option is to be used, when one of the node (or glusterd in one of the node) is down. Once stopped, the session can be restarted any time. Note that upon restarting of the session, the change detection mechanism falls back to xsync mode. This happens even though you have changelog generating journals, while the geo-rep session is stopped.
