 No chicken and egg here I think. You want a volume to be used as your
master data domain and creating a new volume in a new gluster-cluster is
independent of your datacenter status.

You mentioned your hosts are on default cluster - so make sure your cluster
support gluster service (you should have picked gluster as a service during
engine install)
