I think I may have cheated...
I setup the ceph iscsi gateway in HA mode, then a freenas server. Connected
the freenas server to the iscsi targets and poof, I have a universal NFS
share(s). I stood up a few freenas servers to share various loads. We also
use the iscsi gateways for direct esxi

Yes! Since Samba 4.11 this supported via vfs_ceph_snapshots module.

Hello Chad,
starting with the Problems from lost connections with the kernel CephFS
mount to a much simpler service setup, there are plenty.
But what would be the point in stacking different tools (kernel mount, smb
service,..) untested together just because you can?

Awhile back I thought there were some limitations which prevented us
from trying this, but I cannot remember...
What does the ceph vfs gain you over exporting by cephfs kernel module
(kernel 4.19). What does it lose you?
(I.e. pros and cons versus kernel module?)
Thanks!

Hello,
we have a CTDB based HA Samba in our Ceph Management Solution.
It works like a charm and we connect it to existing active directories as

It's based on vfs_ceph and you can read more about how to configure it

Note that we have had issues with deadlocks when re-exporting CephFS
via Samba. It appears to only occur with Mac clients, though. In some
cases it has hung on a request for a high-level directory and hung
that branch for all clients.

Hi Seth,
I don't know if this helps you, but I'll share what we do. We present a
large amount of CephFS using NFS and SMB and a handful of cephfs direct
clients, and rarely encounter issues with either frontends or CephFS.
However, the 'gateway' is multiple servers - we use 2x ganesha servers wi
