>>Yes, we are, CTDB version: 2.5.2.0.54.gf9fbccb.

1. What procedure did you follow to configure ctdb/samba to work?  Was it hard?  Could you show us, if permitted?
2. Are you also controlling NFS via ctdb?
3. Are you managing multiple IP devices?  Eg: ethX0 for VLAN104 and ethX1 for VLAN103 (<- for fast 10GbE users).

We use SoNAS and v7000 for most NAS and they use ctdb.  Their ctdb results are overall 'ok', with a few bumps here or there. Not too many ctdb PMRs over the 3-4 years on SoNAS.  
We want to set up ctdb for a GPFS AFM cache that services GPSF data clients.  That cache writes to an AFM home (SoNAS).  This cache also uses Samba and NFS for lightweight (as in IO, though still important) file access on this cache.
It does not use ctdb, but I know it should.
I would love to learn how you set your environment up even if it may be a little (or a lot) different.

I noticed that v7000 Unified is using CTDB v3.3.
What magic version is that as it's not in the git tree.  Latest tagged is 2.5.4.
Is that a question for Amitay?
