Gluster/NFS (or gNFS) is the NFS-server that comes with GlusterFS. It is
a NFSv3 server and can only be used to export Gluster volumes.

You can enable it:
 - install the glusterfs-gnfs RPM (glusterfs >= 3.11)
 - the glusterfs-server RPM might contain the NFS-server (glusterfs < 3.11)
 - build with "./configure --enable-gnfs"
 - enable per volume with: gluster volume set $VOLUME nfs.disable false
 - logs are in /var/log/gluster/nfs.log

But really, NFS-Ganesha is the recommendation. It has many more features
and will receive regular updates for improvements.
