GFID split-brains can be resolved using one of the methods in the split-brain resolution CLI as explained in the section "3. Resolution of split-brain using gluster CLI" of https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Troubleshooting/resolving-splitbrain/.
The things to be noted here while using this CLI for resolving gfid split-brains are:
- You can not use the GFID of the file as an argument with any of the CLI options to resolve GFID split-brain. It should be the absolute path as seen from the mount point to the file considered as source.
- With source-brick option there is no way to resolve all the GFID split-brain in one shot by not specifying any file-path in the CLI as done while resolving data or metadata split-brain. For each file in GFID split-brain, run the CLI with the policy you want to use.
- Resolving directory GFID split-brain using CLI with the "source-brick" option in a "distributed-replicated" volume needs to be done on all the volumes explicitly if the file is in gfid split-brain on multiple subvolumes. Since directories get created on all the subvolumes, using one particular brick as source for directory GFID split-brain, heal the directories for that subvolume. In this case, other subvolumes must be healed using the brick which has the same GFID as that of the previous brick which was used as source for healing other subvolume.

hi Guys
I'm seeing "Gfid mismatch detected" in the logs but no split
brain indicated (4-way replica)

The most recent data I'm 100% certain is on rider-ring8.
Any expert could probably quickly suggest how to go about
the problem.
Would something like manual healing with 'source-brick' or
'latest-mtime' work or is too naive?
many thanks, L.
