NAME 🖥️ vfs_commit 🖥️

flush dirty data at specified intervals

SYNOPSIS

vfs objects = commit

DESCRIPTION

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

The vfs_commit VFS module keeps track of the amount of data written to a file and synchronizes it to disk when a specified amount accumulates.

vfs_commit is useful in two circumstances. First, if you have very precious data, the impact of unexpected power loss can be minimized by a small commit:dthresh value. Secondly, write performance can be improved on some systems by flushing file data early and at regular intervals.

This module is stackable.

OPTIONS

commit:dthresh = BYTES

Synchronize file data each time the specified number of bytes has been written.

The following suffixes may be applied to BYTES:

·

K - BYTES is a number of kilobytes

·

M - BYTES is a number of megabytes

·

G - BYTES is a number of gigabytes

EXAMPLES

Synchronize the file data on the [precious] share after every 512 kilobytes (524288 bytes) of data is written:

    [precious]
	path = /data/precious
	vfs objects = commit
	commit:dthresh = 512K

CAVEATS

On some systems, the data synchronization performed by commit may reduce performance.

VERSION

This man page is part of version 4.20.1-Debian of the Samba suite.
