Yes true. Because of this engine messages(1858236) are piling up so thought of doing in
this way if there is another of handling this in vdsm let me know.

There is a bug already created for this #1367
I see that there is a patch for fixing the root cause in gluster.
So I would not add a hack to detect these errors in vdsm.
The engine bug (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1858236) should move to vdsm
or to gluster, since vdsm is reporting the errors from gluster as it should.
Regardless, we should fix vdsm error handling so it exposes the real error
instead of the error format string.
