Turn off NFS locking on the source host and you will be fine. The root cause is not a problem with cluster its actually a deficiency in the NFS RFCs about RPC which has never been properly addressed.

Also if OP is on non-supported gluster 3.4.x rather than RHSS or at

out of the cluster to bring fully up to date and store the data, syncing
the data across, updating the originals, syncing back and then adding
back the hosts you took out to to the first backup?
