<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. Automount units may be used to
|
|
implement on-demand mounting as well as parallelized mounting of file systems.</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 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>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>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that automount support on Linux is privileged, automount units are hence only available in the
|
|
system service manager (and root's user service manager), but not in unprivileged users' service
|
|
managers.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that automount units should not be nested. (The establishment of the inner automount point
|
|
would unconditionally pin the outer mount point, defeating its purpose.)</para>
