GlusterFS
|
|
(<ulink url="http://www.gluster.org/">http://www.gluster.org</ulink>)
|
|
is an Open Source clustered file system capable of scaling to
|
|
several peta-bytes. With its FUSE based native client,
|
|
GlusterFS is available as a POSIX compliant file system and can
|
|
hence be shared by Samba without additional steps.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <command>vfs_glusterfs_fuse</command> VFS module provides an enhanced way
|
|
to access a Gluster filesystem using a Gluster FUSE mount. It provides support
|
|
for the <command>get_real_filename</command> VFS call which enhances file access performance
|
|
by avoiding multiple expensive case folding lookup calls to detect the appropriate
|
|
case of an existing filename.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Furthermore, this module implements a substitute file-id
|
|
mechanism. The default file-id mechanism is not working
|
|
correctly for gluster fuse mount re-exports, so in order to
|
|
avoid data loss, users exporting gluster fuse mounts with
|
|
Samba should enable this module.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
This module can be combined with other modules, but it
|
|
should be the last module in the <command>vfs objects</command>
|
|
list. Modules added to this list to the right of the glusterfs
|
|
entry may not have any effect at all.

Note that <command>vfs_glusterfs_fuse</command> requires a Gluster mount. For accessing glusterfs directly
|
|
over the GFAPI library please use the <command>vfs_glusterfs</command> module.

<para>The original Samba software and related utilities
|
|
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
|
|
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
|
|
to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
