VFS_CROSSRENAME(8)	  System Administration tools	    VFS_CROSSRENAME(8)

NAME
       vfs_crossrename - server side rename files across filesystem boundaries

SYNOPSIS
       vfs objects = crossrename

DESCRIPTION
       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The vfs_crossrename VFS module allows server side rename operations
       even if source and target are on different physical devices. A "move"
       in Explorer is usually a rename operation if it is inside of a single
       share or device. Usually such a rename operation returns
       NT_STATUS_NOT_SAME_DEVICE and the client has to move the file by manual
       copy and delete operations. If the rename by copy is done by the server
       this can be much more efficient. vfs_crossrename tries to do this
       server-side cross-device rename operation.

       There are however limitations that this module currently does not
       solve:

	   The ACLs of files are not preserved,

	   meta data in EAs are not preserved,

	   renames of whole subdirectories cannot be done recursively, in that
	   case we still return STATUS_NOT_SAME_DEVICE and let the client
	   decide what to do,

	   rename operations of huge files can cause hangs on the client
	   because clients expect a rename operation to return fast.

       This module is stackable.

OPTIONS
       crossrename:sizelimit = BYTES
	   server-side cross-device-renames are only done for files if the
	   filesize is not larger than the defined size in MiB to prevent
	   timeouts. The default sizelimit is 20 (MiB)

EXAMPLES
       To add server-side cross-device renames inside of a share for all files
       sized up to 50MB:

		   [testshare]
		path = /data/mounts
		vfs objects = crossrename
		crossrename:sizelimit = 50

VERSION
