Lustre is an in-kernel file system.

I am not aware of a FUSE mountable Lustre, it would be very likely to have an 
unacceptable performance profile.

There is also method to re-export as an NFS share to enable NFS clients access 
to data stored on Lustre, an example use case is when client OS does not 
support Lustre but does support NFS.

Subject: [lustre-discuss] Lustre kernel space or user space

Hi

I had a few questions.
1. Is lustre storage and client mounted in kernel space or user space?
2. Can lustre be mounted with fuse? What is the use of mounting lustre with 
fuse?

Thanks and regards,
Nick
