[Bug 1515446] Re: NFS shares in FSTAB no longer mount at boot

 

This bug has not been tagged before as 'wily' and unfortunately I have
created a duplicate bug report of this one, not being able to find it
earlier.

A few more observations from my original bug report:

It looks like the network is not up when the mounting is done however
systemd dependencies as well as unit files generated from /etc/fstab
seem to be OK

$ tail -2 /etc/fstab
# Media Library
disk.lan:/volume1/Library /media/Library nfs rw,async,auto,nfsvers=3 0 0

$ systemd-analyze dot media-Library.mount
digraph systemd {
        "remote-fs.target"->"media-Library.mount" [color="green"];
        "remote-fs.target"->"media-Library.mount" [color="black"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"network-online.target" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"remote-fs-pre.target" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"systemd-journald.socket" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"system.slice" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"network.target" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"-.mount" [color="green"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"-.mount" [color="black"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"system.slice" [color="grey66"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"network-online.target" [color="grey66"];
        "media-Library.mount"->"umount.target" [color="red"];
        "umount.target"->"media-Library.mount" [color="green"];
        "umount.target"->"media-Library.mount" [color="red"];
}
   Color legend: black = Requires
                 dark blue = Requisite
                 dark grey = Wants
                 red = Conflicts
                 green = After

Despite the correct dependency between "media-Library.mount" and the
"network-online.target" looking at the journal log reveals that the
network is not yet started when the "network-online.target" is reached.

Title:
  NFS shares in FSTAB no longer mount at boot

Status in nfs-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After a fresh install of 15.10, nfs shares no longer mount on boot.
  I'm using the same line to mount as I did in 14.04 prior:

  <server>:/share  /mnt/share  ntfs4  _netdev, auto 0 0

  This line worked just fine in 14.04, and 14.10 on my laptop, to mount
  the shares at boot.

  Manual mounting after boot works fine.  Systemctl shows a name
  resolution failure (see below)
