This mechanism was introduced in  3.7.9 or 3.7.10 
(http://review.gluster.org/#/c/13806/). Before that version, you 
manually needed to set some xattrs on the bricks so that healing could 
happen in parallel while the client still would server reads from the 
original brick.  I can't find the link to the doc which describes these 
steps for setting xattrs.:-(
