For users, the square brackets already serve as markup and clearly delineate the section name from surrounding text. Putting additional markup around that only adds clutter. Also, we were very inconsistent in using the quotes. Let's just drop them altogether.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
|
|
<literal>.automount</literal> encodes information about a file
|
|
system automount point controlled and supervised by
|
|
systemd.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This man page lists the configuration options specific to
|
|
this unit type. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for the common options of all unit configuration files. The common
|
|
configuration items are configured in the generic [Unit] and
|
|
[Install] sections. The automount specific configuration options
|
|
are configured in the [Automount] section.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Automount units must be named after the automount directories they control. Example: the automount point
|
|
<filename index="false">/home/lennart</filename> must be configured in a unit file
|
|
<filename>home-lennart.automount</filename>. For details about the escaping logic used to convert a file system
|
|
path to a unit name see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Note that
|
|
automount units cannot be templated, nor is it possible to add multiple names to an automount unit by creating
|
|
additional symlinks to its unit file.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For each automount unit file a matching mount unit file (see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for details) must exist which is activated when the automount path
|
|
is accessed. Example: if an automount unit
|
|
<filename>home-lennart.automount</filename> is active and the user
|
|
accesses <filename>/home/lennart</filename> the mount unit
|
|
<filename>home-lennart.mount</filename> will be activated.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Automount units may be used to implement on-demand mounting
|
|
as well as parallelized mounting of file systems.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that automount units are separate from the mount itself, so you
|
|
should not set <varname>After=</varname> or <varname>Requires=</varname>
|
|
for mount dependencies here. For example, you should not set
|
|
<varname>After=network-online.target</varname> or similar on network
|
|
filesystems. Doing so may result in an ordering cycle.</para>
