If I'm understanding what you want correctly, one way to do it would be
to write a wrapper script for the checks that would look first at
whether the filesystem is mounted. If it isn't, return OK and a message
like "Currently inactive". If it is, call the actual plugin requested
and return whatever that outputs.
