Hi,
First a polite request. In the future, when you have any questions, please ask them on the mailing list. This way, other users also have a chance of helping you and your problem will be archived and be available for others to search.

Now, looking at the list of files you've given, it seems to me that you are using a custom build of GlusterFS, not the rpm packages from the Fedora repository. IIRC, with Fedora 19 and GlusterFS 3.4, the systemd unit files were added by the Fedora packagers. The GlusterFS source didn't ship any systemd unit files. This is why you don't see any unit file for glusterd on your system. Instead you have `/etc/rc.d/init.d/glusterd` (this is a weird path BTW), as GlusterFS source contained init scripts at that point in time.

I suggest you use official packages for a better experience, preferrably of the latest version. Also, as Fedora 19 is no longer supported, it will not be recieving any further updates (GlusterFS or otherwise). So please move to a newer version of Fedora and use newer packages.

The problem is with the glusterfsd.service systemd unit, it does
nothing and will always fail to start because it isn't given a
volfile. glusterd.service depends on glusterfsd.service, and thus
fails to start as glusterfsd fails to start. The fedora packages need
to be rebuilt without glusterfsd.service.
For the time being, if you absolutely want to use systemd to start
glusterd, edit the /usr/lib/systemd/system/glusterd.service file and
remove the 'Wants=glusterfsd.service' line. Or you could just start
glusterd directly.
