ceph, shadow_copy, cifs, and "Previous Versions"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

Might it be possible to expose snapshots from a ceph data store to the
Previous Versions client on Windows machines using the shadow_copy or
shadow_copy2 vfs modules in a Samba setup? Some people appear to be
running something like that on (Open)Solaris/BSD & ZFS or Linux & LVM.
I've been playing with ceph on a 3-box Debian setup in a lab
environment using those examples as a reference point, but I've not
had any luck so far.

I saw a brief note on this at
http://marc.info/?l=ceph-devel&m=127710582006588&w=2, but nothing much
to speak of. My thoughts were that a ceph system has the potential to
make for a very robust backend to a NAS setup.

Has anyone gone down that road before or have any ideas to investigate on this?
