I tried with this %fs ls dbfs:/mnt, but i want to know do this give me all the mount point?
The command findmnt lists all mount points. To do this the findmnt reads files /etc/fstab, /etc/fstab. d, /etc/mtab or /proc/self/mountinfo.
The mount is a pointer to an S3 location, so the data is never synced locally. After a mount point is created through a cluster, users of that cluster can immediately access the mount point. To use the mount point in another running cluster, you must run dbutils. fs.
The Databricks File System (DBFS) is a distributed file system mounted into an Azure Databricks workspace and available on Azure Databricks clusters.
myfile(<mount-name>) is a DBFS path and represents what container/folder will be mounted in DBFS as specified in “source”. You can type in your <mount-name> config is the <conf-key> which is this “fs. azure.
You can simply use the Databricks filesystem commands to navigate through the mount points available in your cluster.
%fs
mounts
This will give you all the mount points and also display the corresponding ADLS source file path.
I like to do the following :
display(dbutils.fs.mounts())
as it displays the databricks path and external endpoint.
I find it safer than %sh ls /mnt/
as you can have a folder in /mnt/ that is not pointing to an external storage.
