Description of problem: In RHEL 7 it was noticed that sysstat was forcing mounts of automounts whenever it ran. This was resolved with BZ1670060: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1670060 It seems that this fix was never applied to the RHEL 8 sysstat as I don't see the code change here and I have a customer that has sysstat remounting their autofs. The upstream code for this was in sysstat v12.5.3 but RHEL 8.3 is on 11.7.3-5 so it looks like we might have missed it. Upstream code: https://github.com/sysstat/sysstat/issues/213 There was also a BZ around the fix which would lead to a crash due to this fix and that BZ is here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1774590 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 8.3 sysstat-11.7.3-5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up autofs 2. Run sysstat 3. sysstat will force a mount of autofs Actual results: sysstat will force a mount of autofs Expected results: sysstat skips over autofs mounts Additional info:
Added regression flag, as customers upgrading to RHEL 8 are seeing this issue re-introduced into their RHEL environments.
