It looks like this is failing because the mount device is missing ":/"
in it, which mount.lustre uses to decide whether this is a client or
server mountpoint. you should be using:
client# mount -t lustre pstormgs01@tcp:/sif0 /mnt/sif0
and this should work. It probably makes sense to improve the error
message to be more clear, like:
mount.lustre: cannot mount block device 'pstormgs01@tcp:sif0': no
server support
or similar
Thank you very much for the fast answer! Indeed that fixed the error.
I agree, that the error message is unclear and would suggest to add some
kind of word to explicitly point out that Lustre is trying to mount a
local filesystem like
mount.lustre: cannot mount local block device 'pstormgs01@tcp:sif0': no
server support
or
mount.lustre: cannot mount block device 'pstormgs01@tcp:sif0': no server
support on local machine
or even
mount.lustre: cannot mount 'pstormgs01@tcp:sif0': no server support, are
you missing a leading / ?
Anyway, the error message should also be documented somewhere with a
explaination, maybe I can add it to the wiki.
Thanks and best regards,
Beni
