Do you mean like /etc/fstab?
If you don't want GFS to get mounted by the initscripts, you can
specify "noauto" as a filesystem option in /etc/fstab.
You are correct that netfs is mounting too many filesystems. I
thought that netfs had been updated to ignore gfs filesystems (it
should have been updated).
Applying the following patch (as jn it.swin.edu.au pointed out) ought
to resolve the issue:
diff -u init.d.orig/netfs init.d/netfs

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910 Description of problem: the netfs init script from initscripts starts gfs filesystems. This causes 2 problems. 1. If you don't want to start GFS then you can't have other network filesystems 2. It does not stop GFS filesystems so you still need the gfs script. I think the bug belongs in initscripts but it only becomes a bug if you use GFS so I am entering it here. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): GFS-6.0.0-15 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add this to /etc/fstab /dev/pool/storage00 /mnt/gfs1 gfs defaults 0 0 2. reboot or run service netfs start 3. Actual Results: netfs mounts gfs filesystems Expected Results: netfs should ignore gfs filesystems and leave them for the gfs script. Additional info: My quick fix: perl -pi -e "s|nonfs,smbfs,ncpfs$|nonfs,smbfs,ncpfs,gfs|" /etc/rc.d/init.d/netfs A better solution would have a config file for netfs which gfs can update if/when it is required (ie when you install the GFS rpm).
