[lustre-discuss] Mounting lustre on block device

[Patrick Farrell]

Lustre doesn't show up in lsblk on the client because it isn't a block device on the client.  NFS and other network file systems also don't show up lsblk, for the same reason.

Subject: [lustre-discuss] Mounting lustre on block device

When we mount a lustre file system on client, the lustre file system does not use block device on client side. Instead it uses virtual file system namespace. Mounting point will not be shown when we do 'lsblk'. As it only show on 'df-hT'.

How can we mount lustre file system on block such that when we write something with lusterfs then it can be shown in block device??
Can share command??
