Why do we get the message "EDC5129I No such file or directory" during Web Client (Vantage Storage Point) installation?

Issue/Introduction

During Web Client (Vantage Storage Point) installation, messages such as the following can be issued:

Loading externalized properties
#### Cannot match UNIX flavor to a filesystem table: attempting '/etc/fstab'
fstab: /etc/fstab (EDC5129I No such file or directory.)
** FileSystem (FSTab): could not generate static fs table
#### Cannot match UNIX flavor to a filesystem table: attempting 'df -k'
CheckDiskSpace: couldn't find Volume for "/install"
CDS: Assuming sufficient disk space. (-1)
System's temporary directory = /tmp
...

Resolution

These messages are just informational and annoying.
Usually the 'tmp' directory is mounted in /fstab/tmp, but in 80% of user installations it is not. It is something like: /xxxx/tmp.
 
So these Unix messages can't be removed, so just ignore them.
