We see the same thing, after a reboot or downtime of one server there are almost always unresolved heal entries. Which renders the whole concept of 3x or 2+1 replication kind of moot. We could often resolve it by just running "touch" on the files through a FUSE mount, after finding out which files corresponded to the mentioned GFIDs. We think it must be either a bug or a undocumented behaviour in GlusterFS.
