[Gluster-users] Directory Healing not possible

[Diego Ercolani]

Thank you very much, 
for now I resolved with a controlled "gluster volume replace-brick" of on of 
the two "replica" brick. This seemed have resolved the issue.
In my situation the problem is also that the data structure of the filesystem 
is mostly unknown as is "housekeeped" by oVirt that have a self-unreadable 
data organization...
I'll read the documentation you addressed me hoping in the future would help.
