[Xymon] mounted NFS volumes not included in disk utilization graphs

I'll "me, too" Henrik's response (good to see he's still lurking).  df on nfs should happen on the server side.  Another problem, I've had the same thing happen to SAN disks that were "locally" attached when the server drops away unexpectedly.

There is a potential problem with including network disks in the "disk"
status: If your network connection to the NFS server dies, then the "df"
command is likely to stall. So you won't get any client data sent over
to the Xymon server, and your entire server goes purple.

That is why the Xymon client uses the "-l" (local) flag for df to NOT
report on network filesystems.
