What is the expected behaviour of gluster client when servers disappear
(due to a short network outage) and re-appear? For example, say there are
servers A and B, and client C. A goes away (e.g. pull the network cable).
Timeout occurs, client continues using B. A returns without glusterfsd
being restarted or the client glusterfs being restarted.

Does the client periodically re-scan for presence of servers that dropped
out? Or does the client have to be restarted to notice that a server has
returned?

As witnessed during my last round of testing some time ago under 2.0.0rc1 (yes, i know), client C will _not_ notice that server A has returned.

This behaviour may have changed since, however...
