    +Document method to avoid rsync filling root drive

    When rsync pushes to a remote node with an unmounted drive and if
    certain steps are not taken, rsync may attempt to write files to
    the local drive at the location where the drive was mounted.

    There are two suggested solutions for this issue:
      1) Set the permissions for all mount points in /srv/node/
           to root:root 755
      2) Mount the drives elsewhere and symlink the drives to /srv/.../

    The first method ensures that only root and not the swift user
    can write in the /srv/.../ directories.

    The second method will prompt a broken link issue if rsync
    attempts to write to an unmounted drive.
