upstream patch : https://review.gluster.org/16878
Isn't the patch already part of 3.4.0? Does it need only qualification? Can we please take this bug to the closure?
Hi Atin, Even though the patch is part of 3.4.0, the automatic split-brain resolution policy as a feature (BZ #1304593) has failed-qa. It needs some improvements and bug fixes. Currently the feature itself is not qualified. Since this bug is going to be fixed using the same policies, I think it is better to wait for the other issues to be fixed in the feature before qualifying this. Thanks, Karthik
