Due to some smart people screw up my network connection on the

GlusterFS volume in split-brain. I googled and found
different way to clean this. I need some extra help on this.

1. what's the best way?
Here's the write-up I did about split-brain:
http://joejulian.name/blog/fixing-split-brain-with-glusterfs-33/
2.gluster volume heal doesnt' really save this, right?
No, the nature of split-brain is such that there is no automated way
to recover from it.
3. kind of shooting from the dark as I can't see the data
content. The volume is holding VM images. Picking the latest
copies should be good?
That does seem a reasonably safe assumption, especially if your vm's
are cattle
instead of kittens.
