vfs_shadow_copy2
VFS_SHADOW_COPY2(8) System Administration tools VFS_SHADOW_COPY2(8)
NAME
vfs_shadow_copy2 - Expose snapshots to Windows clients as shadow copies.
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = shadow_copy2
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_shadow_copy2 VFS module functionality that is similar to Microsoft Shadow Copy services. When setup properly, this module allows
Microsoft Shadow Copy clients to browse "shadow copies" on Samba shares.
This is a 2nd implementation of a shadow copy module. This version has the following features:
1. You don't need to populate your shares with symlinks to the snapshots. This can be very important when you have thousands of shares, or
use [homes].
2. The inode number of the files is altered so it is different from the original. This allows the 'restore' button to work without a
sharing violation.
This module is stackable.
CONFIGURATION
vfs_shadow_copy2 relies on a filesystem snapshot implementation. Many common filesystems have native support for this.
Filesystem snapshots must be mounted on specially named directories in order to be recognized by vfs_shadow_copy2. The snapshot mount
points must be immediate children of a the directory being shared.
The snapshot naming convention is @GMT-YYYY.MM.DD-hh.mm.ss, where:
o YYYY is the 4 digit year
o MM is the 2 digit month
o DD is the 2 digit day
o hh is the 2 digit hour
o mm is the 2 digit minute
o ss is the 2 digit second.
The vfs_shadow_copy2 snapshot naming convention can be produced with the following date(1) command:
TZ=GMT date +@GMT-%Y.%m.%d-%H.%M.%S
OPTIONS
shadow:snapdir = SNAPDIR
Path to the directory where snapshots are kept.
shadow:basedir = BASEDIR
Path to the base directory that snapshots are from.
shadow:fixinodes = yes/no
If you enable shadow:fixinodes then this module will modify the apparent inode number of files in the snapshot directories using a hash
of the files path. This is needed for snapshot systems where the snapshots have the same device:inode number as the original files
(such as happens with GPFS snapshots). If you don't set this option then the 'restore' button in the shadow copy UI will fail with a
sharing violation.
EXAMPLES
Add shadow copy support to user home directories:
[homes]
vfs objects = shadow_copy2
shadow:snapdir = /data/snaphots
shadow:basedir = /data/home
CAVEATS
This is not a backup, archival, or version control solution.
With Samba or Windows servers, vfs_shadow_copy2 is designed to be an end-user tool only. It does not replace or enhance your backup and
archival solutions and should in no way be considered as such. Additionally, if you need version control, implement a version control
system.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.2.7 of the Samba suite.
