Getting the code

You need two source trees, one is a copy of Samba3 with clustering patches, and the other is the ctdb code itself.

Both source trees are stored in git repositories.

To get an initial checkout of the ctdb code do this:

   git clone git://git.samba.org/tridge/ctdb.git ctdb

To update this tree when improvements are made in the upstream code do this:

    cd ctdb
    git pull

If you don't have git and can't easily install it, then you can instead use the following command to fetch ctdb or update it:

    rsync -avz samba.org::ftp/unpacked/ctdb .

To checkout the samba-ctdb tree do this:

   git clone git://git.samba.org/tridge/samba-ctdb.git samba_3_0_ctdb

To update this tree when improvements are made in the upstream code do this:

   cd samba_3_0_ctdb
   git pull

If you don't have bzr and can't easily install it, then you can instead use the following command to update your tree to the latest version:

    rsync -avz samba.org::ftp/unpacked/samba_3_0_ctdb .

Note that packages are so far only available for RHEL5. Other packages may come later.

See packages directory for package downloads.
