Gluster users - Feb 2014 - Problem with duplicate files

Hi,

have a system consisting of 4 bricks, distributed, 3.4.1, and I have noticed
that some of the files are stored on three of the bricks. Typically a listing
can look something like this:

brick1: ---------T 2 root root 0 Feb 11 15:47 /mnt/raid6/file
brick2: -rw------- 2 2686 2022 10545 Mar 6 2012 /mnt/raid6/file
brick3: -rw------- 2 2686 2022 10545 Mar 6 2012 /mnt/raid6/file
brick4: no such file or directory

There are quite a few of these files, and it would be tedious to clean them up
manually. Is there a way to have gluster fix these?

Thanks!

Can you please post your volume configuration?

This is not a normal occurrence. Do you happen to know the sequence of 
steps which resulted in this?
