Hey Marco, Though the Ceph version is Octopus we've had great experience setting up Samba/CTDB on top of CephFS. Typically we'd collocate the MDS nodes as our CTDB nodes/samba gateways and share out kernel CephFS mounts on the gateways via samba. Some nice features are the ceph snapshots can be exposed as samba shadowcopies to samba clients, as well as excellent support for Windows ACLs/domain member samba servers if you're in need of that. Overall I would say it works out quite well together, and is probably the best method to get CephFS connected to any MacOS or Windows clients. -----Original Message----- From: Marco Pizzolo <marcopizzolo@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: September 6, 2022 2:45 PM To: ceph-users <ceph-users@xxxxxxx> Subject: 16.2.10 Cephfs with CTDB, Samba running on Ubuntu Hello Everyone, We are looking at clustering Samba with CTDB to have highly available access to CephFS for clients. I wanted to see how others have implemented, and their experiences so far. Would welcome all feedback, and of course if you happen to have any documentation on what you did so that we can test out the same way that would be fantastic. Many thanks.
