lsblk issue on CentOs 7

[zerowebcorp]

Hello, I have used this in one of our apps which has been deployed on a CentOs 7 OS. This is failing because the command "lsblk -f -J" doesn't return a valid result on CentOS

`[root@eu~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core) [root@eu-p-mongo-2 ~]# lsblk -f -J lsblk: invalid option -- 'J'

Usage: lsblk [options] [ ...]

Options: -a, --all print all devices -b, --bytes print SIZE in bytes rather than in human readable format -d, --nodeps don't print slaves or holders -D, --discard print discard capabilities -e, --exclude exclude devices by major number (default: RAM disks) -I, --include show only devices with specified major numbers -f, --fs output info about filesystems -h, --help usage information (this) -i, --ascii use ascii characters only -m, --perms output info about permissions -l, --list use list format output -n, --noheadings don't print headings -o, --output output columns -p, --paths print complate device path -P, --pairs use key="value" output format -r, --raw use raw output format -s, --inverse inverse dependencies -t, --topology output info about topology -S, --scsi output info about SCSI devices

-h, --help display this help and exit -V, --version output version information and exit

looks like CentOS 7.9 is using lsblk from util-linux 2.23.2 until util-linux v2.27 util-linux v2.27 Release Note the --json was added to lsblk by Karel Zak it is an incompatible version of lsblk, or the CentOS 7.9 is not directly supported. A workaround is required.

This is something that is going to require community contribution from a regular Linux user.

[weidesh]

yeah, that's definitely.
