A generic gpfs.mount target does not seem to exist on my system. There are only specific mount 
targets for the mounted gpfs filesystems. So I'd need to individually configure each depend service 
on each system with the filesystem for wait for. My approach was more general in just waiting for 
all_local gpfs filesystems. So I can use the same configuration everywhere.

Besides, I have once tested and found that these targets are not usable because of some oddities but 
unfortunately I don't remember details. But the outcome was my script from the initial post. Maybe 
it was that there's no automatic mount target for all_local, same problem as above.
