That's mount type. Yes, we should not have overloaded the term "local".

Specify / local/if you intend to use the file system on one node only. Thanks.

It tells users the heartbeat mode. "none" means non-clustered. "local" means the heartbeat region is on the mounted volume. This is the default mode. In 1.8 we have "global" which means the heartbeat region has been configured on 1+ devices. local and global are only pertinent in the o2cb stack. If you are using pacemaker, you will see cluster_stack=pcmk and not heartbeat=. There is no heartbeat=cluster.
