    [CONFIGURATION] SMB mount from Windows Server 2022

    Hello everyone,

    I recently decided to spin up a VM with Kubuntu 24.10.
    So far everything works as expected and I am able to play around.

    As I want to use my VM primarily for backup purposes I passed through a spare SAS3008 controller which is physically connected with a hot-swappable drive bay.

    Additionally I have mounted some SMB share from a Windows 2022 server which I would like to backup on encrypted ZFS drives and here comes the fun part where I gave up:

    When mounting SMB via the most up-to-date SMB3.1.1 version the throughput is at around 100 MB/s - when using SMB2.1 I get the full HDD speed of up to 300 MB/s - my VM and server are connected via 10 Gigabit.
    Current /etc/fstab would be:
    Code:
    //winserver/g$ /mnt/winserver/g-drive cifs cache=strict,iocharset=utf8,sec=krb5i,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,nofail,x-systemd.automount,vers=2.1 0 0​
    On a Windows 11 Desktop which I previously used for backups I was also able to use SMB3.1.1 with 300 MB/s.


    Is there anything I should be aware of?


    An interessting fact: If I go to my Windows server via Dolphin (smb:// and so on) I also get full throughput.
Working...
