Yes, no exports as it was the default config before enabling Ganesha on any gluster volume.

Yes it was the case in my last attempt, from the same machine. I also tried from another machine, but the result was the same. The firewall (firewalld, as it's a CentOS 7.1) is disabled anyways.

Yes, I did it already, and indeed it showed the two requests, so the portmapper works fine, but it hangs on the second request.
Also "rpcinfo -t localhost portmapper" returns successfully, while "rpcinfo -t localhost nfs" hangs.
The output of rpcinfo -p is the following:

Nope, it's disabled:

# uname -a
Linux node2 3.10.0-229.4.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 13 10:06:09 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Thanks for the help,

If I do the same after exporting a volume nfs-ganesha does not even start, complaining for not being able to bind the IPv6 ruota socket, but in fact there is nothing listening on IPv6, so it should not happen:
