I am new to gluster but already like it. I did a maintenance last week where I shutdown both nodes (one after each others). I had many files that needed to be healed after that. Everything worked well, except for 1 file. It is in split-brain, with 2 different GFID. I read the documentation but it only covers the cases where the GFID is the same on both bricks. BTW, I am running Gluster 3.10. Here

Hi Ludwig, There is no way to resolve gfid split-brains with type mismatch. You have to do it manually by following the steps in [1]. In case of type mismatch it is recommended to resolve it manually. But for only gfid mismatch in 3.11 we have a way to resolve it by using the *favorite-child-policy*. Since the file is not important, you can go with deleting that. [1]

Can you please explain How we ended up in this scenario. I think that will help to understand more about this scenarios and why gluster recommend replica 3 or arbiter volume.
