<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hello,<br>
<br>Thanks for your answer. <br>I understand that lustre was not the right choice for my objective.<br>I'm looking for a free and open source file system that would allow me to
backup and read data on the long time possibly compatible for linux, mac os 10.10 and windows 7<br>
<br>What would you suggest to fulfill this objective ?<br><br>
Thanks for your support<br>

<div>I am puzzled, why would you format an external
harddisk as lustre? You realize lustre is not really
aimed at being a single disk filesystem?<br>
<br>
</div>
Lustre is supposed to be spread over a set of disks
(and servers) where you have disks/servers
specifically in charge of storing objects and
disks/servers in charge of maintaining the metadata
which actually tells you what those objects are...<br>
<br>
</div>
Even if you would get fuse lustre support running you
would be using it to mount a filesystem being served by
one or more remote hosts and not to mount a single
external disk, the fuse driver would be a client driver
and not the whole server package which is capable of
understanding the disk provided it has the metadata.<br>
<br>
</div>
(Theoretically you should be able to mount the disk as
ext4 or ZFS depending on the backend filesystem you chose,
but even then lacking the metadata objects are just
objects without descriptive names and may lack parts that
were striped to other disks afaik).<br>
<br>
</div>
What is the goal you are trying to accomplish (beyond
mounting your external disk)?<br>
<br>

In some sense their has already been a port of Lustre
to macosx and<br>
windows. I ported it using FUSE about 10years ago,
using liblustre.<br>
It was about a 10min exercise...<br>
<br>
I have absolutely no idea where liblustre is at now...<br>

Lustre is a linux-only project. Only linux can
act as a client and a<br>
server for Lustre.<br>

Subject: [lustre-discuss] Lustre on mac os 10.10
and windows 7<br>
<br>
Hello,<br>
<br>
I have formated a western digital Element hard
drive with the lustre<br>
format. The drive have the very good performance
but mac os 10.10 couldn't<br>
read it<br>
<br>
When I look the partition type with gparted I get
ext4 but even install<br>
osxfuse My lustre drive isen't recognized by mac
os x<br>
<br>
Why ?<br>
<br>
Could windows 7 read the lustre drive ?<br>
<br>
Thanks for your support<br>
<br>
Best regareds<br>
