Examples
Note
The following examples assume you have already created a configuration file in the current directory.
Mount all blob storage containers in the storage account specified in the configuration file to the path specified in the command. (Each container will be a subdirectory under the directory specified):
sudo mkdir bf2all
sudo blobfuse2 mount all ./bf2all --config-file=./config.yaml
Example Output
Mounting container : blobfuse2a to path : bf2all/blobfuse2a
Mounting container : blobfuse2b to path : bf2all/blobfuse2b
sudo blobfuse2 mount list
Example output
1 : /home/<user>/bf2all/blobfuse2a
2 : /home/<user>/bf2all/blobfuse2b
