Thanks for pointing it out. Since these issues were mentioned:

1) Self-heal of a file that does not exist on the first subvolume

Is this affected by read-subvolume and favourite-child options? Does this lead to the file being clobbered on "ls -la", since the directory metadata is going to be inconsistent (at least different modification time since a file was created on one of the secondary nodes)? Is there a way to heal this file without knowing it's name (and knowing it's name isn't always feasible if it becomes invisible once the primary server comes back up!)? If it shows up at least on the server where it exists, then doing a periodic "ls -laR" would heal it, but if it never shows up then it can't be healed - and in that case what happens when the file is appended or truncated for writing?

3) File re-opening after a server comes back up

Does the replication get kickstarted by doing a "ls -laR" to initiate self-healing even if a file is still being open and another server has rejoined? Will replication then continue online for currently open files?

Thanks.
