vfs_crossrename - server side rename files across filesystem boundaries
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = crossrename
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_crossrename VFS module allows server side rename operations even if source and target are on different physical devices. A "move"
in Explorer is usually a rename operation if it is inside of a single share or device. Usually such a rename operation returns
NT_STATUS_NOT_SAME_DEVICE and the client has to move the file by manual copy and delete operations. If the rename by copy is done by the
server this can be much more efficient. vfs_crossrename tries to do this server-side cross-device rename operation.
There are however limitations that this module currently does not solve:
The ACLs of files are not preserved,
meta data in EAs are not preserved,
renames of whole subdirectories cannot be done recursively, in that case we still return STATUS_NOT_SAME_DEVICE and let the client
decide what to do,
rename operations of huge files can cause hangs on the client because clients expect a rename operation to return fast.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
crossrename:sizelimit = BYTES
server-side cross-device-renames are only done for files if the filesize is not larger than the defined size in MiB to prevent
timeouts. The default sizelimit is 20 (MiB)
EXAMPLES
To add server-side cross-device renames inside of a share for all files sized up to 50MB:
[testshare]
path = /data/mounts
vfs objects = crossrename
crossrename:sizelimit = 50

vfs_readonly - make a Samba share read only for a specified time period
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = readonly
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_readonly VFS module marks a share as read only for all clients connecting within the configured time period. Clients connecting
during this time will be denied write access to all files in the share, irrespective of their actual access privileges.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
readonly:period = BEGIN, END
Only mark the share as read only if the client connection was made between the times marked by the BEGIN and END date specifiers. The
syntax of these date specifiers is the same as that accepted by the -d option of GNU date(1).
EXAMPLES
Mark all shares read only:
[global]
vfs objects = readonly
Mark the [backup] share as read only during business hours:
[backup]
path = /readonly
vfs objects = readonly
readonly:period = readonly:period = "today 9:00","today 17:00"
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
