That's what I meant. Sorry for the confusion.
I'm writing on Client1 (same server as Brick1). Client2 (mounted Brick2, on server2) has nothing writing to it (so far).

My wondering is how I went up on having a split-brain if I'm only writing on one client.

Nothing but GlusterFS should be writing to bricks. Mount a client and write there.

Right.
I have Brick1 being constantly written. But I have nothing writing on Brick2. It just get "healed" data from Brick1.
This setup is still not in production, and there's no applications using that data. I have rsyncs constantly updating Brick1 (bring data from production servers), and then Gluster updates Brick2.
Which makes me wonder how may I be creating multiple replicas during a split-brain.
It may be the case that, having a split-brain event, I may be updating versions of the same file on Brick1 (only), and Gluster understands it as different versions and things get confuse?
Anyways, while we talk I'm gonna run Joe's precious procedure on split-brain recovery.

Mismatched GFIDs would happen if a file is created on multiple replicas during a split-brain event. The GFID is assigned at file creation.

_______________________________________________Yep, so it is indeed a split-brain caused by a mismatch of the trusted.gfid attribute.
Sadly, I don't know precisely what causes it. -Communication loss might be one of the triggers. I am guessing the files with the problem are dynamic, correct? In our setup (also replica 2), communication is never a problem but we do see this when one of the server takes a reboot. Maybe some obscure and difficult to understand race between background self-heal and the self heal daemon...
In any case, a normal procedure for split brain recovery would work for you if you wish to get you files back in function. It's easy to find on google. I use the instructions on Joe Julian's blog page myself.

Oh, right!

Not sure exactly what that means. I'm googling, and would appreciate if you
guys can bring some light.
Thanks!

Your bricks are mounted elsewhere.
/exports/images1-1/brick, and exports/images2-1/brick
Btw, what version of Linux do you use? And, are the files you observe the
input/output errors on soft-links?
