+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+
+ <para>This VFS module is part of the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
+
+ <para>
+ The <command>vfs_ceph</command> VFS module exposes
+ CephFS specific features for use by Samba.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Ceph is a distributed network file system designed to provide
+ excellent performance, reliability, and scalability. This is a
+ shared library allowing applications to access a Ceph
+ distributed file system via a POSIX-like interface.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This module can be combined with other modules, but it
+ should be the last module in the <command>vfs objects</command>
+ list. Modules added to this list to the right of the ceph
+ entry may not have any effect at all.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <command>vfs_ceph</command> performs mapping between Windows and
+ POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs). To ensure correct processing
+ and enforcement of POSIX ACLs, the following Ceph configuration
+ parameters are automatically applied:
+ </para>
+ <programlisting>
+ <command>client acl type = posix_acl</command>
+ <command>fuse default permissions = false</command>
+ </programlisting>
+</refsect1>
+
+<refsect1>
+ <title>CONFIGURATION</title>
+
+ <para>
+ <command>vfs_ceph</command> requires that the underlying share
+ path is a Ceph filesystem.
+ </para>
+
+ <programlisting>
+ <smbconfsection name="[share]"/>
+ <smbconfoption name="vfs objects">ceph</smbconfoption>
+ <smbconfoption name="path">/non-mounted/cephfs/path</smbconfoption>
+ <smbconfoption name="kernel share modes">no</smbconfoption>
+ </programlisting>
+
+ <para>
+ Since <command>vfs_ceph</command> does not require a filesystem
+ mount, the share <command>path</command> is treated differently:
+ it is interpreted as an absolute path within the Ceph filesystem
+ on the attached Ceph cluster.
+ In a ctdb cluster environment where ctdb manages Samba,
+ <command>CTDB_SAMBA_SKIP_SHARE_CHECK=yes</command> must be
+ configured to disable local share path checks, otherwise ctdb
+ will not reach a healthy state.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Note that currently <command>kernel share modes</command> have
+ to be disabled in a share running with the CephFS vfs module for
+ file serving to work properly.
+ </para>
