Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
CentOS release 5.10 (Final) on x64
glusterfs-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-geo-replication-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-libs-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-fuse-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-server-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-api-3.4.3-3.el5
glusterfs-cli-3.4.3-3.el5

How reproducible:
1. Clean installs of CentOS 5.10, full updates, epel repo, gluster repo on SoftLayer VM (4gb ram, 4 cores, 2nd drive=300gb).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Follow quick install guide.
2. mkdir -p /data/brick1
3. mkfs.xfs -L devroot -i size=512 /dev/<some volume>
4. add it fstab, mount volume to /data/brick1
5. mkdir devroot /data/brick1
6. Do same on second host, peer probe from both sides.
7. Attempt to create volume.


Actual results:
No volume is created.
No bricks are added.
Only extended attribute is set on /data/brick1/devroot:
# getfattr -dR -e hex -m . /data/brick1
getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: data/brick1/devroot
trusted.glusterfs.volume-id=0x7735ee8fd2a64b21b278b607f0c6b4bf

Expected results:
Volume created.
