These are not from the glusterfs-epel.repo.

The .29-2 part of 3.6.0.29-2 tells me they're the Red Hat Storage
client-side RPMs that are included in RHEL.

They were probably installed before you added the glusterfs-epel.repo
to your system.

You can't yum _install_ 3.7.x while those 3.6 RPMs are on the system.
You might be able to get away with yum _update_, but I don't recommend it.

To use upstream/community gluster on RHEL, start by removing the "old"
gluster RPMs with `rpm erase -y gluster\*`.

Then continue to install the 3.7.x RPMs from glusterfs-epel.repo as normal.
