<div>Hello Pranith,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your reply. I'm using 3.5.2. <br>
<br>
Is it possible that Windows doesn't release the files after
a write happens? <br>
<br>
</div>
Because the self-heal often never occurs. Just this morning we
discovered that when a web server read from the other node,
some files that had been changed days ago still had content
from before the edit.<br>

It should happen automatically. Even the mount *must* serve reads
from good copy. In what scenario did you observe that the reads are
served from stale brick?<br>
Could you give 'getfattr -d -m. -e hex
<path-of-file-on-brick>' output from both the bricks?<br>
<br>
Is it possible to provide self-heal-daemon logs so that we can
inspect what is happening?<br>

From the logs you have pasted, it doesn't seem there are
any split-brains. It is just performing self-heals. What
version of glusterfs are you using? Self-heals sometimes
don't happen if the data operations from mount are in
progress because it tries to give that more priority.
Missing files should be created once the self-heal
completes on the parent directory of those files.<br>

I should add, I'm mounting these volumes through
GlusterFS FUSE, not the Samba VFS plugin.<br>

<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm running into some serious problems
with Gluster + CTDB and Samba. What I
have:<br>
<br>
</div>
A two node replicated gluster cluster set
up to share volumes using Samba setup
according to this guide: <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/doc/Gluster_CTDB_setup.v1.pdf"
target="_blank">https://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/doc/Gluster_CTDB_setup.v1.pdf</a><br>
<br>
</div>
When we edit or copy files into the volume
via SMB (from a Windows client accessing
through a samba file share) this inevitably
leads to a split-brain scenario. For
example:<br>
<br>
gluster> volume heal fl-webroot info<br>
