The SMB Report Card
summary
Adds managed SMB to Ceph by landing an SMB manager module inside cephadm orchestration, exposing imperative CLI and declarative YAML via a new seph smb apply command. Creates logical SMB clusters and Shares backed by CephFS subvolumes, supports local users and Active Directory authentication, and deploys Samba containers (samba, samba‑cc, winbind, ctdb sidecars). Demo builds two clusters on four subvolumes, Windows and Linux clients successfully mount and write files, config lives in an SMB RADOS pool, code is on main aiming for Tentacle.
