Thank you Karthik,
I have run this for all files (see example below) and it says the file is not in split-brain:
sudo gluster volume heal storage2 split-brain latest-mtime /dms/final_archive/41be9ff5ec05c4b1c989c6053e709e59
Healing /dms/final_archive/41be9ff5ec05c4b1c989c6053e709e59 failed: File not in split-brain.
Volume heal failed.
- Kindest regards,

>>> Note: I guess the volume you are talking about is of type replica-2 (1x2). Usually replica 2 volumes are prone to split-brain. If you can consider converting them to arbiter or replica-3, they will handle most of the cases which can lead to slit-brains. For more information see [1].

>>> Resolving the split-brain: [2] talks about how to interpret the heal info output and different ways to resolve them using the CLI/manually/using the favorite-child-policy.
>>> If you are having entry split brain, and is a gfid split-brain (file/dir having different gfids on the replica bricks) then you can use the CLI option to resolve them. If a directory is in gfid split-brain in a distributed-replicate volume and you are using the source-brick option please make sure you use the brick of this subvolume, which has the same gfid as that of the other distribute subvolume(s) where you have the correct gfid, as the source.
>>> If you are having a type mismatch then follow the steps in [3] to resolve the split-brain.
