[Gluster-users] Documentation on recovering from split-brain situation
Hi, I'm trying to find official documentation that describes the procedure for recovering from a split-brain situation with replicated volumes. I can find various posts on the mailing list that refer to the version 2.x series, but nothing good for 3.x. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Toby

In my travels I came across this blog post: http://saiweb.co.uk/linux/gluster-resolving-a-split-brain-in-a-replicated-setup/ Which worked in a test with 3.2.6, but.. actual instructions on the gluster site would give much more confidence in ones ability to resolve the problem, or what might have changed in 3.3.x cheers, Toby
