Error description

• In a Db2 pureScale environment, a GPFS mount resource as seen in
  the lssam output may report offline for a monitoring cycle due
  to being unable to access information contained within the
  /etc/filesystems (AIX) or /etc/fstab (Linux) file.
  
  Under normal circumstances, the mountVXXX_monitor.ksh script
  should not have any issue accessing information located within
  this file. If it is suspected that the mountVXXX_monitor.ksh
  script has unexpectedly exit with return code of 2 due to this,
  then investigate the system logs for messages reported by the
  mountVXXX_monitor.ksh script. The following should be seen if
  debug level system logging is enabled:
