How mkfs.lustre behaves if multiple options specified simultaniously , for example: mkfs.lustre --mkfsoptions='-i 131072 -N 1073741824 -I 2048'</p> <p>2.If mkfs.lustre still handles paramtere when option and value are not space-delimited, for example: --mkfsoptions='-i131072 -N1073741824 -I2048'</p> LU-13529

Using "-I" is independent of the other options, unless it results in an invalid filesystem (eg. -i &lt; -I, or -I x -N &gt; device size). </p> <p>I don't think it matters if there is a space between the argument and the value or not. </p> Development Rank 1|i00zpb: Rank (Obsolete) 9223372036854775807
