[Samba] Shadow_copy2 and exposing multiple levels of snapshots
Hello Group, Looking for a little assistance on this as I have been unsuccessful is getting the shadow: snapprefix, shadow:delimiter and shadow:format to work as I expect. I have no issue with getting previous versions in Windows to show me either hourly, daily or weekly, etc snapshots as previous versions. But I owuld like to be able to expose all. The shadow:snapprefix, etc seems to be the way to do it, but I am unable to get it to work. When I setup the prefix, etc, I get know previous versions at all. My setup in Smb.conf is below, and my directories are named as follows: shadow:snapprefix ^\(zfs-auto-snap_dai\)\{0,1\}\(zfs-auto-snap_hour\)\{0,1\}$ shadow:delimiter = ly- shadow:format = ly-%Y-%m-%d-%H%M Directories : zfs-auto-snap_daily-2018-01-01-1235 zfs-auto-snap_daily-2018-03-15-1135 zfs-auto-snap_daily-2018-03-29-1135 zfs-auto-snap_hourly-2018-04-03-1817 zfs-auto-snap_hourly-2018-04-04-0817 zfs-auto-snap_weekly-2018-01-17-1240 Etc, etc, etc When I do something like : shadow: format zfs-auto-snap_hourly-%Y-%m-%d-%H%M in the smb.conf, without the prefix, etc, there is no issues. I see the hourlys appear in my previous versions. I am using the latest version of Samba, and Ubuntu 16.04 Any help would be appreciated. Regards -- Terry Bennett
