NAME

6       vfs_ceph - Utilize features provided by CephFS
7

SYNOPSIS

9       vfs objects = ceph
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This VFS module is part of the samba(8) suite.
13
14       The vfs_ceph VFS module exposes CephFS specific features for use by
15       Samba.
16
17       Ceph is a distributed network file system designed to provide excellent
18       performance, reliability, and scalability. This is a shared library
19       allowing applications to access a Ceph distributed file system via a
20       POSIX-like interface.
21
22       This module can be combined with other modules, but it should be the
23       last module in the vfs objects list. Modules added to this list to the
24       right of the ceph entry may not have any effect at all.
