No, NFS starts automatically, except if you disable it on gluster, when you
configure your volume.

on your gluster server(s) run:

showmount -e localhost


on your client (if unix) do the same with

showmount -e ip.of.gluster.server

also, make sure you don't have firewalls interfering.

And, just for testing, do not mention ports or protocols when mounting the
share.

The command

gluster volume status <your_volume_name_here>

will also inform if the NFS server is running for that share.

Well, that is a start.

Cheers.
