About CIFS clustering modes

Veritas Access Administrator's Guide

The following clustering modes are supported by Veritas Access:

  • Normal

  • Clustered Trivial Database (CTDB) - a cluster implementation of the TDB (Trivial database) based on the Berkeley database API

The following operating modes are supported by Veritas Access:

  • User

  • Domain

  • ADS

Each clustering mode supports all of the three operating modes. The ctdb clustering mode is a different clustered implementation of Veritas Access CIFS, which supports almost all of the features that are supported by normal clustering mode as well as some additional features.

Additional features supported in ctdb clustering mode:

  • Directory-level share support

  • Multi-instance share export of a file system/directory

  • Simultaneous access of a share from multiple nodes and therefore better load balancing
