You can not directly use  netapp appliance,
first of all you should enable FC license on netapp
than you need a Fiber channel switch like "cisco mds" o brocade,
than you have to connect cisco o brocade to netapp FC ports;
and last but not list you need computer with fiber channel connection,
directly connected to FC switch, that mount netapp LUN, and so you can
implement LUSTRE using a netapp like one o more ost
