systemd automount

[François Patte]

Bonjour,

I configured an automount of directories located on a server on my local 
network: in the fstab of a computer on the network  I put the line:

192.168.1.16:/data /home/patte/data nfs 
noauto,rw,user,nofail,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.mount-timeout=30  0 0

It works. If the server is down, no problem, the boot of the computer is OK.

But if the server gets down while the computer is working, this turns in 
an awful way: everything on the computer becomes very slow, opening a 
file manager takes ages, the ls command does no work and it is 
impossible to unmount the directory on which the server is mounted.

Did I forgot an option in the fstab? Is there a way to solve this 
problem without shuting down the computer (which also takes ages...).

Thank you for helping.
