Hi Lustre experts,

I am looking to enable rootsquashing feature on lustre. As part of it, I
noticed we have 2 potential ways of doing it.
1. Using tunefs.lustre cmd on MDS servers.
2. Using  nodemap feature to enforce root squash and as part of it,
creating a trustedSystems node map_group to all all the lustre server_nids
and set the admin and trusted properties. And later removing the admin and
trusted properties for default nodemap group and squash the UID and GIDs.

When checked on latest lustre manual, it recommends the node map way, Can
someone help understand what are the pros and cons of these 2 methods ?

And as part of node map feature, we need to add all the lustre server_nids.
Also have a question what would be the consequences if we do not add all
the lustre server_nids into trustedSystems group ?

Thanks for the input.
Regards,
Theja
