        <para>This parameter specifies whether Samba should use DMAPI to
 
8
        determine whether a file is offline or not. This would typically
 
9
        be used in conjunction with a hierarchical storage system that
 
10
        automatically migrates files to tape.

13
        <para>Note that Samba infers the status of a file by examining the
 
14
        events that a DMAPI application has registered interest in. This
 
15
        heuristic is satisfactory for a number of hierarchical storage
 
16
        systems, but there may be system for which it will fail. In this
 
17
        case, Samba may erroneously report files to be offline.

        <para>This parameter is only available if a supported DMAPI
 
21
        implementation was found at compilation time. It will only be used
 
22
        if DMAPI is found to enabled on the system at run time.
