Hi

I thinking about HA+DRBD, you can mount the partition with acl, user_xattr settings, I using this method for shares, this should work with the sysvol directory too?!

Btw,is it possible to store the PDC's *.tdb files on that kind of partition and when the PDC dies the BDC's HA mounts the shares/tdb/sysvol partitions and loads the correct smb.conf. For me it make sense, since all data is available only for the active server. Of course you have to back up the tdb files with tdbbackup.

Hi,

Sorry about late reply...

I've been baning my head againstr replication here for a while...

GlusterFS - it seems to have problems with the extended attributes specifically on the point where the gluster FS is mounted.

For example: I have a standard debian setup with sysvol in /var/lib/samba/ and mount a gluster sysvol partition here (with xattrs) I can set attributes within the partition fine, but I can't set the attributes on the sysvol folder itself, or they won't inherit properly...

I also came unstuck on uidnumbers across DCs (see previous email), but I was just getting an error from GPMC saying permissions were all wrong (paraphrased!)

My next approach (not tested yet) is to get the mount point out of the share, eg:

- mount gluster FS in /srv/glusterMounts/sysvol and in here have a directory sysvol which I share as my sysvol share:

[sysvol]
path = /srv/glusterMounts/sysvol/sysvol

How do you do it to get it to work?

cheers

Jim

Betreff: [Samba] Sysvol replication

Hi all,

Has anyone actually got sysvol replication working between 2 (or more)
Samba4 DCs? I've tried gluster, inosync, csync and rsync and keep getting
stuck on issues with the extended attributes.

Is there a roadmap or any clues of a date when MSFRS or DFS replication will
be part of Samb4?

thanks again,

Jim
