glusterd is the management daemon that takes care of cluster membership 
& configuration primarily.Normally a glusterd restart would not be 
needed to resolve the disconnected nodes' problem.

A few questions:

Is this setup on bare metal or does it involve virtual machines?

Have you checked if port 24007 is reachable on all peers?

Additionally, if you are not running 3.7.3 you would need to ensure that 
the privileged ports check is bypassed in all glusterds.
