SYNOPSIS

9       vfs objects = glusterfs_fuse
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This VFS module is part of the samba(8) suite.
13
14       GlusterFS (http://www.gluster.org) is an Open Source clustered file
15       system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. With its FUSE based
16       native client, GlusterFS is available as a POSIX compliant file system
17       and can hence be shared by Samba without additional steps.
18
19       The vfs_glusterfs_fuse VFS module provides an enhanced way to access a
20       Gluster filesystem using a Gluster FUSE mount. It provides support for
21       the get_real_filename VFS call which enhances file access performance
22       by avoiding multiple expensive case folding lookup calls to detect the
23       appropriate case of an exisiting filename.
24
25       This module can be combined with other modules, but it should be the
26       last module in the vfs objects list. Modules added to this list to the
27       right of the glusterfs entry may not have any effect at all.

CONFIGURATION

37       Note that vfs_glusterfs_fuse requires a Gluster mount. For accessing
38       glusterfs directly over the GFAPI library please use the vfs_glusterfs
39       module.
