Hello Everyone,
Thank you for showing interest in this feature.
We are actively working on this and recently fixed a few bugs. We are
testing the patches and they will be upstream after that.(estimating it to
be fairly tested in 2 weeks).
Here is a quick overview of the new integration method
----------------------
Windows Client
----------------------
||
||
----------------------
SAMBA (version 3.6)
V
VFS PLUGIN (it a samba vfs plugin, samba allows you to write plugin which
becomes recipient for calls which were originally supposed to go to VFS
layer. It is activated on per-share basis.)
V
GFAPI
---------------------
||
||
----------------------
GLUSTERFSD
---------------------
Legend:
-------: Boundaries of a box/node
|| : Network path
V : Data transfer in both direction in same box
Change regarding usage is you need to have gluster shares defined in
smb.conf in this way.
*The entry should look like*
*[gluster-volname]*
*comment = For samba export of volume <volname>*
*vfs objects = glusterfs*
*glusterfs:volume = <volname>*
*path = /*
*read only =no*
*guest ok = yes*
We will upload the detailed user-guide and other documentation soon.
Thanks
