can the path of source files be the same as the volume's location path?

Question

hi friend,

I currently have multiple source files stored on SA (Storage Account) in a directory called /raw/, which also contains a subdirectory /raw/sub1/. When I create a volume, the location is also pointing to SA. Can this location path point to /raw/?

Hi Huang, Winston-HR ,
Greetings & Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum! Thanks for posting your query!
Yes, the path of source files can be the same as the volume's location path. In your case, since you have multiple source files stored on your Storage Account in the /raw/ directory and its subdirectory /raw/sub1/, you can create a volume that points to the /raw/ path on the torage Account. This setup allows you to access the files in both /raw/ and /raw/sub1/ through the volume.
To configure this, you need to ensure that the volume mount path is correctly set to /raw/ when you create the volume. This way, the volume will include all files and subdirectories within /raw/, including /raw/sub1/.
