Hi Team,

I have configured blobfuse on Linux 7 VM. everything is working fine.
Referece: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-how-to-mount-container-linux

Since the blob is already mounted, if we require another container, should I just add it into Storage account?

    @Vijay Kumar Firstly my sincere apologies for not following up sooner.

    If you want to mount a separate container on the VM you need to create a separate config file with the other container specified. You also will need to specify a new mount point and tmp-path.

    Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions or issues and I will be happy to assist.

    @Vijay Kumar
    When using blobfuse you are mounting a specific container and are able to create files and directories inside that container. If you wish to create a new container you would need to do that in the Storage Account and create a separate mount.

    Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions or issues.
