This one is ambiguous: If 'FS' is pronounced 'filesystem', then it is correct as-is. If it is pronounced 'eff-ess', then you want: s/a FS/an FS/ But with some rewording, you can avoid the need for an article, and thus bypass the pronunciation ambiguity: Starts a directory or FS based storage pool. The underlying source device will be mounted for FS based pools.

Same problem, same solution: The underlying source device is mounted for FS based pools.

Trickier. Also runs into singular/plural agreement ("all" pairs with "are", "any" with "is"). How about: Stops a file storage pool. The underlying source device is unmounted for FS based pools. Any cached data about volumes is released. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
