Mounting local harddisks in cluster ?

Hello managers !

A surprising little problem left a couple of question marks spinning
over my head:
I have several harddisks in our 8 cluster ES40 with a advfs domain
Work_<n>#Work (<n> = 1-8) and want to mount them on a
global directory /Work, which is a cdsl to /cluster/members/{memb}/Work,
so that every machine has it's own space associated with this directory.
I can do it by hand 'mount Work_<n>#Work /cluster/members/member<n>/Work',
but placing 8 such mounts into /etc/fstab does nothing. Mounts with
local directories seem to be completely ignored by the CFS.
But this mechanism works when mounting NFS directories this way. And
how and where are the root<n>_domain disks mounted, which are also not
mentioned in /etc/fstab ? Where must I place the mounts to get them at
boot time ?
