Deleting the volume doesn't affect the files in the underlying filesystem, and I get the impression that trying to delete the files in the underlying filesystem without shutting down or deleting the volume would result in Gluster trying to write the files back where they "belong". Should I stop the volume, delete it, then delete the files and start from scratch, re-creating the volume? At this point, the cluster isn't live, so this is an entirely feasible thing to do. All the data exists somewhere else already, and I just need to copy it to the NFS share to get things going.
