See +\fBsystemd.unit\fR(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\&. +.PP +Additional options are listed in +\fBsystemd.exec\fR(5), which define the execution environment the +\fBmount\fR(8) +program is executed in, and in +\fBsystemd.kill\fR(5), which define the way the processes are terminated, and in +\fBsystemd.resource-control\fR(5), which configure resource control settings for the processes of the service\&. +.PP +Note that the options +\fIUser=\fR +and +\fIGroup=\fR +are not useful for mount units\&. systemd passes two parameters to +\fBmount\fR(8); the values of +\fIWhat=\fR +and +\fIWhere=\fR\&. When invoked in this way, +\fBmount\fR(8) +does not read any options from +/etc/fstab, and must be run as UID 0\&. +.PP +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 +\fBsystemd.unit\fR(5)\&. Note that mount units cannot be templated, nor is possible to add multiple names to a mount unit by creating symlinks to its unit file\&. +.PP +Optionally, a mount unit may be accompanied by an automount unit, to allow on\-demand or parallelized mounting\&. See +\fBsystemd.automount\fR(5)\&. +.PP +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 +\fBproc\fR(5)\&. +.PP +Some file systems have special semantics as API file systems for kernel\-to\-userspace and userspace\-to\-userspace interfaces\&.

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 to manage mounts for humans\&. For tooling, writing mount units should be preferred over editing +/etc/fstab\&.

Depending on specific requirements, it may be appropriate to provide some of these options explicitly, or to make use of the +"x\-systemd\&.automount" +option described below instead of using +"bg"\&. +.PP +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 +\fIWants=\fR +or +\fBRequires=\fR +(see option +\fBnofail\fR +below), from either +local\-fs\&.target +or +remote\-fs\&.target, depending whether the file system is local or remote\&. +.PP +\fBx\-systemd\&.requires=\fR +.RS 4 +Configures a +\fIRequires=\fR +and an +\fIAfter=\fR +dependency between the created mount unit and another systemd unit, such as a device or mount unit\&.

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 +\fIAfter=\fR +and +\fIRequires=\fR +in +\fBsystemd.unit\fR(5) +for details\&. +.sp +Note that this option always applies to the created mount unit only regardless whether +\fBx\-systemd\&.automount\fR +has been specified\&. +.sp +Added in version 220\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBx\-systemd\&.before=\fR, \fBx\-systemd\&.after=\fR +.RS 4 +In the created mount unit, configures a +\fIBefore=\fR +or +\fIAfter=\fR +dependency on another systemd unit, such as a mount unit\&.

If the file system is already at maximum size, no action will be performed\&. It is hence expected that this option remains set even after the file system has been grown\&. Only certain file system types are supported, see +\fBsystemd-makefs@.service\fR(8) +for details\&. +.sp +Note that this option can only be used in +/etc/fstab, and will be ignored when part of the +\fIOptions=\fR +setting in a unit file\&. +.sp +Added in version 236\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBx\-systemd\&.pcrfs\fR +.RS 4 +Measures file system identity information (mount point, type, label, UUID, partition label, partition UUID) into PCR 15 after the file system has been mounted\&. This ensures the +\fBsystemd-pcrfs@.service\fR(8) +or +systemd\-pcrfs\-root\&.service +services are pulled in by the mount unit\&. +.sp +Note that this option can only be used in +/etc/fstab, and will be ignored when part of the +\fIOptions=\fR +setting in a unit file\&. It is also implied for the root and +/usr/ +partitions discovered by +\fBsystemd-gpt-auto-generator\fR(8)\&. +.sp +Added in version 253\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBx\-systemd\&.rw\-only\fR +.RS 4 +If a mount operation fails to mount the file system read\-write, it normally tries mounting the file system read\-only instead\&. This option disables that behaviour, and causes the mount to fail immediately instead\&. This option is translated into the +\fIReadWriteOnly=\fR +setting in a unit file\&. +.sp +Added in version 246\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB_netdev\fR +.RS 4 +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\&. +.sp +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\&. +.sp +Added in version 235\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBnoauto\fR, \fBauto\fR +.RS 4 +With +\fBnoauto\fR, the mount unit 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\&. The +\fBauto\fR +option has the opposite meaning and is the default\&. +.sp +Note that if +\fBx\-systemd\&.automount\fR +(see above) is used, neither +\fBauto\fR +nor +\fBnoauto\fR +have any effect\&. The matching automount unit will be added as a dependency to the appropriate target\&. +.sp +Added in version 215\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBnofail\fR +.RS 4 +With +\fBnofail\fR, this mount will be only wanted, not required, by +local\-fs\&.target +or +remote\-fs\&.target\&. Moreover the mount unit is not ordered before these target units\&. This means that the boot will continue without waiting for the mount unit and regardless whether the mount point can be mounted successfully\&. +.sp +Added in version 215\&. +.RE +.PP +\fBx\-initrd\&.mount\fR +.RS 4 +An additional filesystem to be mounted in the initrd\&. See +initrd\-fs\&.target +description in +\fBsystemd.special\fR(7)\&. This is both an indicator to the initrd to mount this partition early and an indicator to the host to leave the partition mounted until final shutdown\&. Or in other words, if this flag is set it is assumed the mount shall be active during the entire regular runtime of the system, i\&.e\&. established before the initrd transitions into the host all the way until the host transitions to the final shutdown phase\&. +.sp +Added in version 215\&. +.RE +.PP +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/\&. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.PP +Mount unit files may include [Unit] and [Install] sections, which are described in +\fBsystemd.unit\fR(5)\&. +.PP +Mount unit 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 +\fBsystemd.exec\fR(5) +and +\fBsystemd.kill\fR(5)\&. The options specific to the [Mount] section of mount units are the following: +.PP +\fIWhat=\fR +.RS 4 +Takes an absolute path of a device node, file or other resource to mount\&. See +\fBmount\fR(8) +for details\&. If this refers to a device node, a dependency on the respective device unit is automatically created\&. (See +\fBsystemd.device\fR(5) +for more information\&.) This option is mandatory\&. Note that the usual specifier expansion is applied to this setting, literal percent characters should hence be written as +"%%"\&. If this mount is a bind mount and the specified path does not exist yet it is created as directory\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIWhere=\fR +.RS 4 +Takes an absolute path of a file or directory for the mount point; in particular, the destination cannot be a symbolic link\&. If the mount point does not exist at the time of mounting, it is created as either a directory or a file\&. The former is the usual case; the latter is done only if this mount is a bind mount and the source (\fIWhat=\fR) is not a directory\&. This string must be reflected in the unit filename\&. (See above\&.) This option is mandatory\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIType=\fR +.RS 4 +Takes a string for the file system type\&. See +\fBmount\fR(8) +for details\&.
