'mount' utility doesn't work with multiple -o options

SDP: 6.4.1
Target: Any supported target

Solution

________________________________________________________________________

When using the mount utility to load a module into a manager, it is important to pass options without a space after the comma. For example:

mount -Tio-pkt -o crc=true, no_slog=1 lsm-qnet.so

will fail, unfortunately with an error that doesn't indicate that the problem is related to the options processing. The space after the comma must be removed:

mount -Tio-pkt -o crc=true,no_slog=1 lsm-qnet.so

This is a limitation of the mount utility and applies to filesystem and other shared objects as well.
