Slow boot due to NFS mount timing out 60s

[pekkal]

I have a brand new siduction 15.1.0 KDE. Adding the NFS mount to fstab resulted 60 second delay to the boot.


I copied to my fstab from my old (2014-1) siduction install the NFS mount commands:

ip-address:/path /media/netbackup        nfs          auto,users,rw,exec
ip-address:/path  /media/netvideo         nfs          auto,users,rw,exec

After booting the "journalctl -b -x" shows for each entry:

-- 
-- The start-up result is done.
Jan 17 16:38:19 siductionbox systemd[1]: media-netmusic.mount: Mounting timed out. Stopping.
Jan 17 16:38:19 siductionbox systemd[1]: Mounted /media/netmusic.

"systemd-analyze blame":

   1min 30.046s media-netbackup.mount
   1min 30.044s media-netvideo.mount

After the slow boot the NFS disk works fine. Any advice: is NFS waiting for my net disk to wake up, or my siduction server to get started. In the both cases: how to  avoid the 60s wait time?

You want to search our forum about systemd automount of nfs shares.

OK, thanks. I changed fstab to

.../media/netbackup nfs noauto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.device-timeout=10,timeo=14,x-systemd.idle-timeout=1min 0 0

and this results a fast boot and the NFS shares coming up later.
