Summary: check_disk - allow to check only local filesystems

Initial Comment:
The attached patch adds a -l flag to check_disk,
causing it to check only local filesystems (only really
useful when checking all the filesystems on a system).
 I needed this because of systems with huge numbers of
NFS mounts.

It looks like the -X does exactly what I need.  And, the
head snapshot supports multiple -x flags, so that addresses
part of a feature request I sent in as well!

Thanks!

Dan,

Thanks for the patch. Unfortunately, I don't think we can use it because there 
is a dependency on the df command accepting a -l option, which I'm not 
convinced every OS supports (I think AIX doesn't have this switch). 

Also, I don't think this is required as the newest version of check_disk - 
which uses GNU df code - has a -X option to exclude specified filesystem 
types.

Can you try out the HEAD snapshot and see if this fits your needs.

I will close this call after 7 days if there have not been any updates.

Ton
