+
+    <para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
+    <literal>.mount</literal> encodes information about a file system
+    mount 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 mount specific configuration options are
+    configured in the [Mount] section.</para>
+
+    <para>Additional options are listed in
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+    which define the execution environment the
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    program is executed in, and in
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.kill</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+    which define the way the processes are terminated, and in
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+    which configure resource control settings for the processes of the
+    service.</para>
+
+    <para>Note that the options <varname>User=</varname> and
+    <varname>Group=</varname> are not useful for mount units.
+    systemd passes two parameters to
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>;
+    the values of <varname>What=</varname> and <varname>Where=</varname>.
+    When invoked in this way,
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    does not read any options from <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>, and
+    must be run as UID 0.</para>
+
+    <para>Mount units must be named after the mount point directories they control. Example: the mount point
+    <filename index="false">/home/lennart</filename> must be configured in a unit file
+    <filename>home-lennart.mount</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 mount units cannot be templated, nor is possible to add multiple names to a mount unit by creating
+    symlinks to its unit file.</para>
+
+    <para>Optionally, a mount unit may be accompanied by an automount
+    unit, to allow on-demand or parallelized mounting. See
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.automount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+    <para>Mount points created at runtime (independently of unit files
+    or <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>) will be monitored by systemd
+    and appear like any other mount unit in systemd. See
+    <filename>/proc/self/mountinfo</filename> description in
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>proc</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>Some file systems have special semantics as API file systems
+    for kernel-to-userspace and userspace-to-userspace interfaces. Some
+    of them may not be changed via mount units, and cannot be
+    disabled. For a longer discussion see <ulink

+    <title><filename>fstab</filename></title>
+
+    <para>Mount units may either be configured via unit files, or via <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> (see
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    for details). Mounts listed in <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> 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 <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> is the preferred approach to manage mounts for
+    humans. For tooling, writing mount units should be preferred over editing <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>.
+    See <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-fstab-generator</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    for details about the conversion from <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> to mount units.</para>

+    as documented in <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>nfs</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    is detected by <command>systemd-fstab-generator</command> and the options
+    are transformed so that systemd fulfills the job-control implications of
+    that option.  Specifically <command>systemd-fstab-generator</command> acts
+    as though <literal>x-systemd.mount-timeout=infinity,retry=10000</literal> was
+    prepended to the option list, and <literal>fg,nofail</literal> was appended.
+    Depending on specific requirements, it may be appropriate to provide some of
+    these options explicitly, or to make use of the
+    <literal>x-systemd.automount</literal> option described below instead
+    of using <literal>bg</literal>.</para>
+
+    <para>When reading <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> 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 <varname>Wants=</varname> or
+    <option>Requires=</option> (see option <option>nofail</option>
+    below), from either <filename>local-fs.target</filename> or

+    system is local or remote.</para>
