Description Vidya Sakar 2012-09-13 10:36:52 UTC 
The volume set options to export a gluster volume through NFS is not intuitive as one needs to do 'disable off' to enable NFS.

gluster vol set <volname> nfs.disable on
gluster vol set <volname> nfs.disable off

To be consistent with how the other options are turned on/off and to make it more intuitive, this could be changed to

gluster vol set <volname> nfs on
gluster vol set <volname> nfs off
Comment 4 Rajesh 2013-03-27 11:19:58 UTC 
gluster volume set <VOLNAME> nfs.disable [yes|no] is the intended option. using on/off works because of our internal interpretation of [yes|no], [on|off], [enable|disable] (an even more confusing pair for nfs.disable), [1|0] as boolean [true|false] all respectively.
