It seems that NFS automounts on F15 are broken?
I have the usual bits set in fstab, one of them being
misty:/syntegra /syntegra nfs4 rw 0 0
It doesn't get mounted, and following the advice in the boot.log I see the following....
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ sudo systemctl status syntegra.mount
syntegra.mount - /syntegra Loaded: loaded Active: failed since Sat, 28 May 2011 08:26:48 +0800; 1min 33s ago Where: /syntegra What: misty:/syntegra Process: 995 ExecMount=/bin/mount /syntegra (code=exited, status=32) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/syntegra.mount
Anyone else seeing this? Is it related to this bugzilla? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690292
A mount after book works just fine....

I think it may be this one:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
Anyway, you are not alone. I finally just stuck some scripts in rc.local to keep trying to mount everything in a backgrounded loop till it actually gets mounted.

Thanks.... I think you've found the correct bugzilla. I too have done some rc.local hacking to get it to work. Wonder why these sorts of things aren't noted in the release notes as "known bugs". Oh, well....

I solaved the problem by adding a comment=systemd.automount for the NFS mounts in fstab. See man systmd.automount Louis

That is a very nice workaround.
Where is the "comment=" feature documented? It's not in the man page given above, nor in the man pages for mount or nfs.

I fount the man page Louis wrote about by googling "man systmd.automount"
You mean "man systemd.automount" (Louis misspelled it as well).
Anyway, I wasn't asking where the manpage was since I already looked at it. IOW I looked at the actual manpage actually installed on my actual system, since I presume this to be the one relevant to my installation.
What I wanted to know is where is the "comment" operator described. In the above manpage there is no instance of the word "comment" to be found and none of the Googled copies seem to have it either. If this is a real thing, what does it do and why is it not documented? Enquiring minds want to know.

Never mind. I found a mention of it in fstab(5).

And finally, the proper reference (systemd.mount(5)):
When reading /etc/fstab a few special mount options are understood by systemd which influence how dependencies are created for mount points from /etc/fstab. If comment=systemd.mount is specified as mount option, then systemd will create a dependency of type Wants from either local-fs.target or remote-fs.target, depending whether the file system is local or remote. If comment=systemd.automount is set, an automount unit will be created for the file system. See systemd.automount(5) for details.

Another way to solve this problem is to just use systemd unit files, placed in:
/etc/systemd/system
For example, here's a working pair of unit files that handle my automount of a NAS backup dir for me:
# ---------- # notes: # - to do a straight mount, you only need this file # - the name should match the intended dir # ex. 'mnt-nas-bak' -> '/mnt/nas/bak' $ cat /etc/systemd/system/mnt-nas-bak.mount [Unit] Description=NAS bak rootdir Wants=network.target statd.service
[Mount] What=cartman:/var/nas/bak Where=/mnt/nas/bak Type=nfs Options=noatime TimeoutSec=15 StandardOutput=syslog StandardError=syslog
# ---------- # notes: # - and to set this as an automount, add this unit file $ cat /etc/systemd/system/mnt-nas-bak.automount [Unit] Description=NAS bak rootdir automount Wants=network.target statd.service
[Automount] Where=/mnt/nas/bak
[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target # ----------
Then register the unit files with systemd:
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload $ sudo enable mnt-nas-bak.automount
