Hi All,

What happens if a directory on Lustre FS gets moved with a regular CentOS7 mv 
command, within the same filesystem? On CentOS 7, using mv from the distro, 
like this, as root:
 
mv /project/TEMP/user  /project/XYZ/user
 
It looks like the content gets copied entirely. Which for large data takes a 
large amount of time.
Is there a way to rename the Lustre directories (changing the name of the top 
directory, only without moving every object in these directories)?  Thanks!
