=== GFS2 Clustered Samba ===
To install Samba with yum:


With the availability of a clustered database (CTDB) for Samba, multiple instances of smbd across different nodes of a cluster are able to share state. It is now possible to export a gfs2 filesystem through one or more nodes in the cluster in a active/passive or active/active configuration to provide a highly-available Samba service.  
# yum install samba
Use one of the options available on the Managing Services page to enable the server to start on boot and to start the process.


''' Benefit to Fedora '''
== To Edit Samba Configuration file ==


Samba was not cluster-aware until the introduction of CTDB and hence it was not possible to have a highly available samba service. Particularly, active/active configuration was not possible. With this feature, it will be possible to run highly available samba service(s) with different configurations (active/active, active/passive) over a shared gfs2 filesystem on the Red Hat cluster infrastructure.
