[Lustre-discuss] Can one node mount more than one lustre cluster?

[Brian O'Connor]

Hi,

What are the constraints on a client mounting more than one lustre
file system?

I realise that a lustre cluster can have more than one file system
configured, but can a client mount different file systems from different
lustre clusters on the same network?;ie.

Assume a Single IB fabric and two Lustre clusters with separate
MGS/MDS/OSS. One lustre is Lincoln and the other is Washington

 >mount -t lustre lincoln:/lustre  /lincoln
 >mount -t lustre washington:/lustre /washinton

Is this doable or should they be on separate IB fabrics
