This error message is totally unclear to me. 

I used "addmounts" as the only command in action sequence. If the
mountpoint isn't defined in /etc/fstab, addmounts adds it and keeps
quiet about it.

If I run cfagent -v for the second time, addmounts(!) throws "your" error
message. If I understood addmounts correctly, it doesn't try to mount
the filesystem, but only checks if all mountables are in /etc/fstab and
adds them if not.

mountall then mounts the filesystem just fine.

I haven't the faintest idea, why *addmounts* throws this message.
