   Run the following command on each client for any volume that should have encryption disabled.

   # umount /mountpoint

2. Stop encrypted volumes

   Run the following command on any server to stop volumes that should have encryption disabled.

   # gluster volume stop volname

3. Disable server and client SSL usage

   Run the following commands for each volume that should have encryption disabled.

   # gluster volume set volname server.ssl off
   # gluster volume set volname client.ssl off
