SMB Keeping - Clients, Clusters & Clouds
summary
Ceph Tentacle adds a supported SMB stack on CephFS with Samba containers, a Ceph MGR module, a Prometheus metrics exporter and an SEFS proxy to reduce memory. A three‑node demo shows two commands creating an AD‑joined cluster with CTDB and a share that appears identically from two different node IPs within minutes. New 2025 work adds collocation by port or IP, a gRPC endpoint with mTLS remote‑control sidecar for client queries and disconnects, QoS/rate‑limit patches (bandwidth/IOPS, WIP), and FScrypt + Keybridge (KMIP backend, WIP).
