[root@localhost ~]# showmount -e 0
Export list for 0:
/test *
[root@localhost ~]# 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.3.0qa42
How reproducible:
found once 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a loop device with ext4 as filesystem
2. create a volume over this device.
3. install 3.3.0qa42
4. create a new volume, after installing xfs on the storage available.
5. showmount -e 0
6. stop the glusterd on all nodes.
7. clear out data from /var/lib/glusterd
8. restart the glusterd
9. showmount -e 0
  
Actual results:-
step 5 and 9 does not display the newly created volume in the list

Expected results:
the volume should be displyed in the list for showmount

Additional info:

even restart of the volume fails to display it.
