Yeah, some minor trickery is required. I believe you can just do something like: ./configure <options> --with-file-system=panfs+nfs+ufs but it's probably safest to do: ./configure <options> --with-io-romio-flags="--with-file-system=panfs +nfs+ufs" Changing the filesystems you want to include, of course.
