CephFS and Samba/CIFS permissions (xattr)

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

 



Hello,

I have a CephFS running on v14.2.8 correctly. I also have a VM which
runs Samba as AD controller and fileserver (Zentyal). My plan was to
mount a CephFS path on that VM and make Samba share those files to a
Windows network. But I cant make the shares work as Samba is asking to
mount the CephFS resource with "user_xattr" mount option, which the
kernel driver doesnt support. Besides that, looks like I cant set CIFS
permissions on directories/files in CephFS because extended attributes
are not supported.

Is that the expected behavior or am I overlooking something?

Looking for information about this issue, I have read about ceph-vfs and
Samba CTDB. Are those options really necessary to get Samba over CephFS
with CIFS/AD domain permissions?

Thanks a lot.

Victor.
