Gluster users - Mar 2011 - Self-heal triggering: a final word on howto do it?

Hi to everyone.

Here whe can find two methods to trigger self-heal:

http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Gluster_3.1:_Triggering_Self-Heal_on_Replicate

but in a replica system, when you have copied data to the volume while a 
peer was offline, I've seen that enetring a "volume rebalance"
command,
starts a sort of "mirror reconstruction" that leads to the same
result.

So long, is it possible to say a "final word" on self-heal practices?

Is it supposed that whe have to periocally trigger the self-heal process 
running specific command in crontab?

Thank you all

Raf

In next couple of weeks I will have a script ready to detect if
Self-Healing is required. Currently stuck with some high priority
things that I need to address first. Will send the script once it's
done.
