It is safe to ignore the stale entries. If you really want to get rid of
them, you can do a volume start force, which will restart the self-heal
daemon (glustershd) and clear its buffers. In recent releases, 'info
healed' and info heal-failed' commands have been removed as they don't
give much insight. All you need to track is the output of 'heal info' If
a file needs healing, it should appear in heal info's output.
