Performance Question: Lots of Small Files vs One Large File
Is this a protocol issue? A decade ago I saw writes to small files less than 16k were awful, because the cost of opening and other file ops dwarfed writing actual content. So very small files should be slow, but these files are 10mb each. Or is this a Windows issue? If so, what's causing the problem? Just trying to understand.

CTDB Question w/ Winbind
Hi Martin It seems as though, when I go from `clustering = no` to `clustering = yes`, if I do a domain join, it will fail. However, if I do a `systemctl restart ctdb` (knowing full well it will fail every time), if after this I add a sleep(15), then do a domain join, then do a `systemctl restart ctdb`, then the join will have worked, AND CTDB will start properly. So in a nutshell, in Ansible, -

setlmasterrole in config
How can setlmasterrole be set persistently? Is there a way to put it in some config file? If not, if setting it from the command line is the only option, what is the recommended approach to ensure it is set upon reboot?

CTDB Statistics Definitions and Scheme?
Hi Team, I'm working on a CTDB Prometheus Exporter. I have two questions... First, does anyone have an "internal" cheat sheet on the metrics and their descriptions? I didn't really see much online, or in the source code.

Getting CTDB dbstatistics in csv format?
Thanks, I'll do that. It might be a week or two. But I have solid C skills going back 25 years, and spent a decade doing C++. Let me know if there's a "getting started guide" for developers on the Samba project. Key tools to install, etc. I will need to spin up a VM to work in. Also, should chat with the CTO so he's aware.

Samba + Winbind : Kerberos Tickets
Hi Folks, We're in the process of setting up a Samba cluster (Samba+CTDB+etcd), and we (presently) using Winbind. We use AD. We're finding that the domain join (or kerberos ticket renewal) is unreliable. Every day we find Samba/Winbind is no longer joined to the domain. Now, we're in a bit of a learning curve here, and automating everything with Terraform + Ansible. We have yet to

Samba Performance Monitoring?
What is the impact of turning profiling on? profiling support = on More specifically, we're setting up a custom Prometheus exporter for Samba, but smbstatus does not provide a whole lot of detailed information for samba health, etc. I was hoping for more detailed information that we can forward to Prometheus. So my question is: 1. What options exist for efficiently getting metrics?

CTDB RecLockLatencyMs vs RecoverInterval
Hi I have a question regarding CTDB RecLockLatencyMs tunable parameter. Is there any relationship between the RecLockLatencyMs property and the RecoverInterval property? Does one need to be larger than the other? Or if RecLockLatencyMs were increased to 5000ms, should some other setting be changed in proportion? We're using a geo-distributed etcd cluster for the CTDB recovery lock and I
