Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

In those cases a dontaudit rule will usually do the job.  If the file system 
is not mounted then there's nothing that the application can usefully do 
under the mount point and usually ENOENT and EACCESS usually get the same 
code paths in most applications that try to open files.

grep dontaudit.*file_t.dir policy.conf

The above grep command will show you some of the dontaudit rules that have 
already been put in place to deal with this.  If there are more domains that 
may get used early in the boot process to get such errors then let us know 
and we'll write dontaudit rules.
