An unmounted disk leaves its mount point empty, so `scan` deletes every record
|
||||||
|
under it, and the next scan reads every file on the disk again. Test the mount
|

point of each disk at or below `/srv` with its own `mountpoint -q`, joined with
|
||||||
|
`&&`, and test `/srv` only when it is one. As the file `/etc/cron.d/sfdupes`:
