Self-heal is not done by a background process. When a server comes back up, self-heal on files will happen the next time they are accessed. Doing an "ls -lR" is one way to force self-heal to happen. What is meant by "background" self-heal is that reads to a file will not block while the self-heal is in progress. This feature is new in the 3.x releases. Vikas
