It would be fairly easy to add a check in the client disk handler
so that you could configure certain filesystems that must be present in
the disk status report.
Right now the client config goes like
disk /export/home 80 95
which as you say just defines the thresholds. We could add a "required"
keyword after the thresholds and if it's there, then the disk status
will go red if it's not there - same as we do for the process checks.
