t is quite embarassing but I have found my problem. Starting with 11.4 the nfs service is not starting automatically. One has to enable it for runlevels 3,5 to get automatically mounted remote filesystems.
I wonder why I thought that this problem started with 12.1. I think the few 11.4 machines we have were not rebooted after initial setup so the problem did not appear.
To sum up: for opensuse systemd is not responsible for mounting remote filesystems. It is the nfs service.
Enabling the service solves the problem. However it does not solve the hang with comment=systemd.automount. So I had to remove the comment.
I'm sorry, this makes no sense to me.
NFS doesn't mount the file systems.
You mount them in the automounter or the fstab with 11.4 or with explicit units or the fstab with SystemD
There should be no need to use automounter to mount NFS dirs. After knowing Christoph's real problem we see that this is still true even using systemd. So everything is fine. Even the flame about possible bugs and missing docu on the other part of this thread was useless: - there is nothing wrong with 12.1 ReleaseNotes about nfs - man fstab is still valid - no need to read random blogs just to know how to mount very common file systems cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
