If the dead server doesn't host any volumes (bricks of volumes to be
specific) then you can actually remove the uuid entry from
/var/lib/glusterd from other nodes and restart glusterd instances one after
another as a workaround. With Glusterd2, we will see if we can have a
better user experience here.

GD2 team - your thoughts?
