These parameters are optional, empty password will be used when both `secretNamespace` and `secretName` are omitted. The provided secret must have type "kubernetes.io/glusterfs".

 When both `restuserkey` and `secretNamespace` + `secretName` is specified, the secret will be used.
+* `clusterid`: `630372ccdc720a92c681fb928f27b53f` is the ID of the cluster which will be used by Heketi when provisioning the volume. It can also be a list of clusterids, for ex:
+"8452344e2becec931ece4e33c4674e4e,42982310de6c63381718ccfa6d8cf397". This is an optional parameter.
 
 Example of a secret can be found in [glusterfs-provisioning-secret.yaml](glusterfs-provisioning-secret.yaml).
