The hostname of the machine didn't actually change but the interface that I wanted to export the filesystem over did. I went through all the files in /var/lib/glusterd changing all instances of the hostname to the hostname of the interface, ie; hostname was nas1 new interface is nas1-10g Same thing happened when I tried to start glusterd. I ran glusterd -debug and searched the log for anything obvious but couldn't find anything. I eventually got desperate and reverted everything and it's back up and running. The new system was using a newer version of gluster, glusterfs 3.4.1 the old one is 3.4.0, could that have something to do with it? I've got 2 new servers I want to add to the system, these are running the newer version of gluster so I thought it best to upgrade the old server before doing that.
