An example of a working share on samba4: You can choose to work with vfs objects= glusterfs Glusterfs:volume=yourvolume Glusterfs:volfile.server=Your.server Form e it turned out to be too buggy. I just used instead the path=/path/toyour/mountedgluster You will need this: posix locking =NO kernel share modes = No [edv] comment=edv s4master verzeichnis auf gluster node1 vfs objects= recycle ##vfs objects= recycle, glusterfs recycle:repository= /%P/Papierkorb ##glusterfs:volume= sambacluster ##glusterfs:volfile_server = XXX.XXXX.XXXX recycle:exclude = *.tmp,*.temp,*.log,*.ldb,*.TMP,?~$*,~$*,Thumbs.db recycle:keeptree = Yes recycle:exclude_dir = .Papierkorb,Papierkorb,tmp,temp,profile,.profile recycle:touch_mtime = yes recycle:versions = Yes recycle:minsize = 1 msdfs root=yes path=/mnt/glusterfs/ads/wingroup/edv read only=no posix locking =NO kernel share modes = No access based share enum=yes hide unreadable=yes hide unwriteable files=yes veto files = Thumbs.db delete veto files = yes Greetings Daniel EDV Daniel Müller Leitung EDV Tropenklinik Paul-Lechler-Krankenhaus Paul-Lechler-Str. 24 72076 Tübingen Tel.: 07071/206-463, Fax: 07071/206-499 eMail: mueller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Internet: www.tropenklinik.de -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: gluster-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gluster-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] Im Auftrag von Dan Mons Gesendet: Montag, 10.

I've yet to find a way to make these work 100% on Gluster. Strange client-side locking behaviour with these tools often make documents completely unusable when hosted off Gluster. We host our large production files (VFX industry) off Gluster, however have a separate Windows Server VM purely for administration to host their legacy Microsoft Office documents (we've since migrated largely to Google Apps + Google Drive for that stuff, but the legacy requirement remains for a handful of users). -Dan ---------------- Dan Mons - R&D Sysadmin Cutting Edge http://cuttingedge.com.au On 10 August 2015 at 15:42, Mathieu Chateau <mathieu.chateau@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello, > > what do you mean by "true" clustering ? > We can do a Windows Failover cluster (1 virtual ip, 1 virtual name), > but this mean using a shared storage like SAN. > > Then it depends on your network topology.
