CephFS, ACLs, NFS and SMB

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

 



Hi,

CephFS currently only supports POSIX ACLs.

These can be used when re-exporting the filesystem via Samba for SMB clients and via nfs-kernel-server for NFSv3 clients.

NFS-Ganesha in version 4.0 from Ceph 17 supports POSIX ACLs for the Ceph FSAL. But only on the backend, the frontend still only uses NFSv4 ACLs as the NFSv3 POSIX ACL side channel is not available.

Are there any plans to harmonize this?

E.g. support NFSv4 ACLs (which are similar to NTFS ACLs AFAIK) natively in CephFS which then could be exported via NFS-Ganesha for NFSv4 and Samba for SMB.

Or is this too much to be asked as there are three projects involved?

Regards
