Why do all my mount resources show up as failed offline in my newly created DB2 shared disk / MQ cluster?
I just created my cluster and my mounts are all showing failed offline on both nodes.

Typically this would be due to the mounts not being listed in /etc/fstab or /etc/filesystems. Please check your syslogs for more information.
In this case these messages where showing up on both nodes:
Sep 28 10:01:05 node01 /usr/sbin/rsct/sapolicies/mqm/mqctrl-data:[25436]: Error: MountPoint '/var/mqm/qmgrs/db01' not found in /etc/fstab
Sep 28 10:01:11 node01 /usr/sbin/rsct/sapolicies/mqm/mqctrl-data:[28020]: Error: MountPoint '/var/mqm/log/db01' not found in /etc/fstab
And on node02:
Sep 28 10:12:26 node02 /usr/sbin/rsct/sapolicies/mqm/mqctrl-data:[30988]: Error: MountPoint '/var/mqm/qmgrs/db01' not found in /etc/fstab
Sep 28 10:12:32 node02 /usr/sbin/rsct/sapolicies/mqm/mqctrl-data:[31106]: Error: MountPoint '/var/mqm/log/db01' not found in /etc/fstab
Simply add them to the correct file (depending on your OS) and the failed offline should be cleared.
