[lustre-discuss] Lustre [2.8.0] and the Linux Automounter

[Scott Nolin]

We use them fairly extensively with 2.7 and 2.8 and find them useful and stable.
 
For cluster nodes, perhaps not a big deal, but for our many non-cluster clients it is useful. We have multiple filesystems so sometimes many mounts. The main benefit I think is not that sometimes they unmount, but if there are ever issues and some filesystems temprorarily not available – much, much less pain.

Good morning, All.
 
We are considering using Lustre [2.8.0] with the Linux automounter.  Is anyone using this combination successfully?  Are there any caveats?  
 
(I did check JIRA, but only found two tickets concerning 1.x Lustre.)
 
Thank you in advance,
Chad
