NAME
       systemd.mount - Mount unit configuration
SYNOPSIS
       mount.mount
DESCRIPTION
       A unit configuration file whose name ends in ".mount" encodes
       information about a file system mount point controlled and supervised
       by systemd.
       This man page lists the configuration options specific to this unit
       type. See systemd.unit(5) for the common options of all unit
       configuration files. The common configuration items are configured in
       the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The mount specific
       configuration options are configured in the [Mount] section.
       Additional options are listed in systemd.exec(5), which define the
       execution environment the mount(8) binary is executed in, and in
       systemd.kill(5), which define the way the processes are terminated, and
       in systemd.resource-control(5), which configure resource control
       settings for the processes of the service. Note that the User= and
       Group= options are not particularly useful for mount units specifying a
       "Type=" option or using configuration not specified in /etc/fstab;
       mount(8) will refuse options that are not listed in /etc/fstab if it is
       not run as UID 0.
       Mount units must be named after the mount point directories they
       control. Example: the mount point /home/lennart must be configured in a
       unit file home-lennart.mount. For details about the escaping logic used
       to convert a file system path to a unit name, see systemd.unit(5).
       Optionally, a mount unit may be accompanied by an automount unit, to
       allow on-demand or parallelized mounting. See systemd.automount(5).
       If a mount point is beneath another mount point in the file system
       hierarchy, a dependency between both units is created automatically.
       Mount points created at runtime (independently of unit files or
       /etc/fstab) will be monitored by systemd and appear like any other
       mount unit in systemd. See /proc/self/mountinfo description in proc(5).
       Some file systems have special semantics as API file systems for
       kernel-to-userspace and userspace-to-userpace interfaces. Some of them
       may not be changed via mount units, and cannot be disabled. For a
       longer discussion see API File Systems[1].
FSTAB
       Mount units may either be configured via unit files, or via /etc/fstab
       (see fstab(5) for details). Mounts listed in /etc/fstab will be
       converted into native units dynamically at boot and when the
       configuration of the system manager is reloaded. In general,
       configuring mount points through /etc/fstab is the preferred approach.
       See systemd-fstab-generator(8) for details about the conversion.
       When reading /etc/fstab a few special mount options are understood by
       systemd which influence how dependencies are created for mount points.
       systemd will create a dependency of type Wants or Requires (see option
       nofail below), from either local-fs.target or remote-fs.target,
       depending whether the file system is local or remote.
       x-systemd.requires=
           Configures a Requires= and an After= dependency between the created
           mount unit and another systemd unit, such as a device or mount
           unit. The argument should be a unit name, or an absolute path to a
           device node or mount point. This option may be specified more than
           once. This option is particularly useful for mount point
           declarations that need an additional device to be around (such as
           an external journal device for journal file systems) or an
           additional mount to be in place (such as an overlay file system
           that merges multiple mount points). See After= and Requires= in
           systemd.unit(5) for details.
       x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=
           Configures a RequiresMountsFor= dependency between the created
           mount unit and other mount units. The argument must be an absolute
           path. This option may be specified more than once. See
           RequiresMountsFor= in systemd.unit(5) for details.
       x-systemd.automount
           An automount unit will be created for the file system. See
           systemd.automount(5) for details.
       x-systemd.idle-timeout=
           Configures the idleness timeout of the automount unit. See
           TimeoutIdleSec= in systemd.automount(5) for details.
       x-systemd.device-timeout=
           Configure how long systemd should wait for a device to show up
           before giving up on an entry from /etc/fstab. Specify a time in
           seconds or explicitly append a unit as "s", "min", "h", "ms".
           Note that this option can only be used in /etc/fstab, and will be
           ignored when part of Options= setting in a unit file.
       _netdev
           Normally the file system type is used to determine if a mount is a
           "network mount", i.e. if it should only be started after the
           network is available. Using this option overrides this detection
           and specifies that the mount requires network.
           Network mount units are ordered between remote-fs-pre.target and
           remote-fs.target, instead of local-fs-pre.target and
           local-fs.target. They also pull in network-online.target and are
           ordered after it and network.target.
       noauto, auto
           With noauto, this mount will not be added as a dependency for
           local-fs.target or remote-fs.target. This means that it will not be
           mounted automatically during boot, unless it is pulled in by some
           other unit. Option auto has the opposite meaning and is the
           default.
       nofail
           With nofail this mount will be only wanted, not required, by
           local-fs.target or remote-fs.target. This means that the boot will
           continue even if this mount point is not mounted successfully.
       x-initrd.mount
           An additional filesystem to be mounted in the initramfs. See
           initrd-fs.target description in systemd.special(7).
       If a mount point is configured in both /etc/fstab and a unit file that
       is stored below /usr, the former will take precedence. If the unit file
       is stored below /etc, it will take precedence. This means: native unit
       files take precedence over traditional configuration files, but this is
       superseded by the rule that configuration in /etc will always take
       precedence over configuration in /usr.
OPTIONS
       Mount files must include a [Mount] section, which carries information
       about the file system mount points it supervises. A number of options
       that may be used in this section are shared with other unit types.
       These options are documented in systemd.exec(5) and systemd.kill(5).
       The options specific to the [Mount] section of mount units are the
       following:
       What=
           Takes an absolute path of a device node, file or other resource to
           mount. See mount(8) for details. If this refers to a device node, a
           dependency on the respective device unit is automatically created.
           (See systemd.device(5) for more information.) This option is
           mandatory.
       Where=
           Takes an absolute path of a directory of the mount point. If the
           mount point does not exist at the time of mounting, it is created.
           This string must be reflected in the unit filename. (See above.)
           This option is mandatory.
       Type=
           Takes a string for the file system type. See mount(8) for details.
           This setting is optional.
       Options=
           Mount options to use when mounting. This takes a comma-separated
           list of options. This setting is optional.
       SloppyOptions=
           Takes a boolean argument. If true, parsing of the options specified
           in Options= is relaxed, and unknown mount options are tolerated.
           This corresponds with mount(8)'s -s switch. Defaults to off.
       LazyUnmount=
           Takes a boolean argument. If true, detach the filesystem from the
           filesystem hierarchy at time of the unmount operation, and clean up
           all references to the filesystem as soon as they are not busy
           anymore. This corresponds with umount(8)'s -l switch. Defaults to
           off.
       DirectoryMode=
           Directories of mount points (and any parent directories) are
           automatically created if needed. This option specifies the file
           system access mode used when creating these directories. Takes an
           access mode in octal notation. Defaults to 0755.
       TimeoutSec=
           Configures the time to wait for the mount command to finish. If a
           command does not exit within the configured time, the mount will be
           considered failed and be shut down again. All commands still
           running will be terminated forcibly via SIGTERM, and after another
           delay of this time with SIGKILL. (See KillMode= in
           systemd.kill(5).) Takes a unit-less value in seconds, or a time
           span value such as "5min 20s". Pass 0 to disable the timeout logic.
           The default value is set from the manager configuration file's
           DefaultTimeoutStart= variable.
       Check systemd.exec(5) and systemd.kill(5) for more settings.
