Cephfs snapshots and previous version
Today I played with a samba gateway and cephfs. I couldn’t get previous versions displayed on a windows client and found very little info on the net how to accomplish this. It seems that I need a vfs module called ceph_snapshots. It’s not included in the latest samba version on Centos 8. by this I also noticed that there is no vfs ceph module. Are these modules not stable and therefore not included in centos8? I can compile them but I would like to know why they are not included. And one more question. Are there any plans to add samba gateway support to cephadm? Best regards, Oliver Von meinem iPhone gesendet
We made the same observation and found out that for CentOS8 there are extra modules for samba that provide vfs modules for certain storage systems (search for all available package names containing samba and they show up in the list). One is available and supports gluster fs. The corresponding package for ceph is missing. My best bet is, that this is part of RedHat enterprise storage and left out deliberately. We compiled SAMBA from source without problems and everything is then present.

Oliver; You might consider asking this question of the CentOS folks. Possibly at centos@centos.org. Thank you, Dominic L. Hilsbos, MBA Director – Information Technology Perform Air International Inc.
