Ceph Day Beijing: Ceph-Dokan: A Native Windows Ceph Client
0 likes356 views
Ceph-Dokan is a native Windows client for Ceph that allows mounting Ceph filesystems (CephFS) and block devices (RBD) directly on Windows. It uses Dokan, which implements the Windows file system API, to provide a FUSE-like interface. This allows direct access to Ceph storage on Windows without translation layers. The document outlines the development of Ceph-Dokan, how to compile and use it, and future plans to integrate authentication and develop DLLs for the Ceph libraries.

- 1. Ceph-Dokan A Native Windows Ceph Client Meng Shengzhi @UnitedStack d.ketor@gmail.com 2015-6-6
- 2. Overview Why Ceph-Dokan Ceph-Dokan Developing How to use Ceph-Dokan Roadmap
- 3. Why Ceph-Dokan Ceph now run on Linux No way to access Ceph directly on Win32 librbd, libcephfs, librados is needed on Win32 Samba is too slow
- 4. What is Ceph-Dokan All code compiled to Win32 platform No translation dll is needed Use Dokan like linux fuse Directly mount CephFS like a local drive libcephfs, librbd, librados
- 5. How to run Ceph Code on Windows MSVC Cygwin MinGW32
- 6. How to run Ceph Code on Windows ceph-mingw-types.h pthread mutex memory mgmt
- 7. How to run Ceph Code on Windows boost library poll -> select linux socket -> winsock2 other system call (backtrace, Sleep, etc)
- 8. Linux POSIX to Win32 FS Dokan implements Win32 FS API Ceph implements Linux POSIX API Win32 and POSIX is very different
- 9. Linux POSIX to Win32 FS open -> CreateFile readdir, stat -> FindFiles char* <-> wchar UTF8 <-> GBK
- 10. Compile Ceph-Dokan Download MinGW from http://ceph.com/misc/ MinGW-20150115.zip Unzip the MinGW-20150115.zip to C: Open C:MinGWmsys1.0msys.bat you will get a MINGW32 bash shell. Git clone the ceph-dokan Make
- 11. Use Ceph-Dokan Install Dokan 0.6.0 on your Windows.Thread model Dokan 0.6.0 support Windows XP/Vista/ 7/2008/8/2012 If you use Win8 or Win2012, you need install Dokan in Windows 7 compatibility mode. Compile Ceph-Dokan Mount：
