The situation you're facing is because of self-heal not being done

heal not being done on open fds is a known issue and will be fixed.
As far as the split brain scenarios, glusterfs can just identify
that is a split-brain and manual intervention is needed to copy the
correct file. And the documentation on split brain explains the
reasons for it.

Raghavendra,
Do you know what release are you planning on fixing the open file self
heal bug? It appears to be the root cause of a lot of other critical
issues and general misunderstands about what gluster is capable of
doing. I don't see anything mentioned about this in the http://gluster.org/docs/index.php/GlusterFS_Roadmap
Thanks,
Brian
