[Lustre-discuss] root rights and permissions

Dear all,

I'm a new lustre user.
I'd search for some documentation about the root permissions in Lustre
without results. My answer is: how can reduce root permissions on a
lustre client?

Using NFS I have no_root_squash option, but under Lustre I don't find
anything similar to that.

If a normal user connect it's laptop with linux on my network, and
mount the lustre filesystem, his root user can remove everything in my
lustre fs. Is it right or I'm wronging something in the installation?

Thanks in advance
