      If there is disconnection, GlusterD will receive it and mark the
brick as disconnected even if the brick process is online. So answer to
this question is both yes and no. From process perspective they are
still up but not to the other components/layers and that may impact the
operations (both mgmt & I/O given there is a disconnect between client
and brick processes too)

I don't get this question. What time out are you talking about?

      This is not true, its over TCP socket.
