Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the quick reply. What is the means of monitoring the progress of a 
self-heal? 

Thanks,
Michael

In 3.3 onward, there is a feature called "proactive self-heal" which will 
automatically start repair in such cases.  It's also more efficient than 
relying on find|stat from a client, though the client driven self-heal is still 
there as a belt-and-suspenders kind of thing.
