So I have been trying to get this going and the volume status command shows that the "NFS Server on localhost" is offline, port and pid are "N/A". I have double checked everything and NFS is disabled on start up an are not currently running. The showmount command returns "clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered"
Any ideas?

Does gluster provide its own > NFS services? Yes, Gluster comes indeed with its own NFS-server. You should not start any NFS-services, Gluster takes care of starting them. The only service that you need to have running (or activated for systemd environments), is rpcbind. Once your volume has been created and started, you should be able to see that there is a NFS-server running with this command: # gluster volume status And, with 'showmount -e' the volme should be listed as an export.
