FSinfo host definitions
=======================

   A host declaration consists of three parts: a set of machine
attribute data, a list of filesystems physically attached to the
machine, and a list of additional statically mounted filesystems.

     host        : "host" host_data list(filesystem) list(mount) ;

   Each host must be declared in this way exactly once.  Such things as
the hardware address, the architecture and operating system types and
the cluster name are all specified within the "host data".

   All the disks the machine has should then be described in the "list
of filesystems".  When describing disks, you can specify what "volname"
the disk/partition should have and all such entries are built up into a
dictionary which can then be used for building the automounter maps.

   The "list of mounts" specifies all the filesystems that should be
statically mounted on the machine.
