[ClusterLabs] Filesystem resource agent w/ filesystem attribute 'noauto'

[Asseel Sidique]

Hi Team,

My question is regarding the filesystem resource agent. In the filesystem resource agent<https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/blob/main/heartbeat/Filesystem> , there is a comment that states:

# Do not put this filesystem in /etc/fstab. This script manages all of
# that for you.

>From what I understand, this means that if you are using a filesystem that is being managed by Pacemaker, you should remove it from /etc/fstab to avoid the OS from also trying to automatically mount the filesystem.

Would it still be okay to add an entry for a filesystem in /etc/fstab if the 'noauto' option is specified? (This will disable the automatic mount for the filesystem).

I did do a test with the 'noauto' specified for a filesystem that was managed by Pacemaker and did not face any issues - but I still wanted to confirm if this was okay.

Best,
Asseel
