Which version of glusterfs are you running?

volume status suggests that the second brick (nas-02-data:/datastore) is 
not running.

Can you run "gluster volume start <volname> force" in any of these two 
nodes and try again?
Then you would also required to run `find . | xargs stat` on the 
mountpoint of the volume. That should trigger the self heal.

BTW, There is no concept of "master" and "slave" in afr (replication). 
However there is concept of "master volume" and "slave volume" in 
gluster geo-replication.
