Seems very unlikely.  That isn't to say that Lustre can't use T10 disks
in a back-end storage configuration (i.e. behind a filesystem on an OSS
node), but I don't think it is at all practical to have Lustre interoperate
with T10 disks directly.

That said, my knowledge of T10 is superficial and outdated.
