Thanks for your replay.

If I do listing in mount point (/repo):
# ls /repo/xxx/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg
ls: cannot access /repo/xxx/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg: Input/output error
#

In log /var/log/glusterfs/repo.log I see:
[2015-10-14 16:27:36.006815] W [MSGID: 108008] [afr-self-heal-name.c:359:afr_selfheal_name_gfid_mismatch_check] 0-repofiles-replicate-0: GFID mismatch for <gfid:4a99bf9d-7423-47d9-a09d-fabaa333eccf>/debian-keyring.gpg 69aaeee6-624b-400a-aa46-b5c6166c014c on repofiles-client-1 and b95ad06e-786a-44e5-ba71-af661982071f on repofiles-client-0

So the file has ended up in GFID split-brain (The trusted.gfid value is different in both bricks as seen in your output below.), which cannot be handled by the split-brain resolution commands. These commands can only resolve data and metadata split-brain. I'm afraid you'll manually need to delete one of the file and the .glusterfs hardlink from the brick. Not sure why the parent-directory was not listed in 'gluster v heal VOLNAME info split-brain' output.

Hello,
today in my 2 nodes replica set I've found split-brain. Command 'ls' start told 'Input/output error'.

What does the mount log (/var/log/glusterfs/<path-to-mount>.log) say when you get this  error?

Can you run getfattr as root for the file from *both* bricks and share the result?
`getfattr -d -m . -e hex /storage/gluster_brick_repofiles/xxx/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg`

Thanks.
Ravi

But command 'gluster v heal VOLNAME info split-brain' does not show problem files:
# gluster v heal repofiles info split-brain
Brick dist-int-master03.xxx:/storage/gluster_brick_repofiles
Number of entries in split-brain: 0

Brick dist-int-master04.xxx:/storage/gluster_brick_repofiles

In output of 'gluster v heal VOLNAME info' I see problem files (/xxx/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg, /repos.json), but without split-brain markers:

I couldn't solve split-brain by new standard command:

I have 2 questions:
1. Why 'gluster v heal VOLNAME info split-brain' doesn't show actual split-brain? Why in 'gluster v heal VOLNAME info' I doesn't see markers like 'possible in split-brain'?
How I can monitor my gluster installation if these commands doesn't show problems?
2. Why 'gluster volume heal VOLNAME split-brain bigger-file FILE' doesn't solve split-brain? I understand that I can solve split-brain remove files from brick but I thought to use this killer feature.

Best regards,
Igor
