For the benefit of anyone else looking at this, the grep actually seems to be
in volume.rc and not in the test itself.
That's right - it appears to have been done to exclude the install path components from the df output which is what is being done to find the aux mount. Is there a better way to figure out if the aux mount is running?

Right. Something went wrong with the system and it refused to run the tests after a while.
I don't think so. There are 13 tests that use the affected function
(get_aux). Do we want to disable 13 tests? I think we actually need
to fix the function instead. It seems to me that the check we're
making is very hacky in two ways:
Checking for both /run and /var/run instead of using GLUSTERD_WORKDIR
Excluding /build/install for no obvious reason at all
This looks like it was done to remove the /build/install components from the df -h outputs. Changing the path to /data/build/install broke this as it did not strip the "/data" from the paths.
It did work when I changed the sed to act on /data/build/install but hardcoded paths are not a good approach.
These auxiliary mounts should be in a much more specific place, and we
should check for that instead of looking for any that might exist. Who
knows where that place is? I've copied Raghavendra G as the quota
maintainer, since that seems like our best bet.
