Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.2.8-9
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am the administrator of a network of systems which use kerberized NFSv3 to
mount user
homedirs across systems. On one particular machine, we were running jessie but
had not yet
switched to systemd. After switching to systemd, I discovered that it failed to
mount
critical mounts on startup. They mounted fine manually. Investigating the
journal
(attached), I discovered that NFS failed to mount because statd was not
available, but
systemd did not start statd until after attempting to mount the NFS shares,
which is why
the manual mount worked fine.
The nfs-common systemd configuration should ensure that any nfs-common daemons
are started
before attempting to mount NFS shares, or ensure that if the mount call occurs
first, that
the system is able to gracefully recover by mounting them properly once the
daemons are
started, rather than by failing entirely.
Please note that I have sanitized the fstab and mounts files below, so as not
to expose
system details. To the best of my knowledge, they bear no relevance to the bug.
Attached is the relevant excerpt from the journal. Again I have sanitized the
mount points;
both kerberized mount points failed (sec=krb5 below).
