Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.47.0-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
we run a system with the /home folder living in a remote nfs server.
After upgrading to Debian 12, we noticed boot failures that were
apparently caused by the e2scrub_reap.service as this service triggers
an automount
home.automount: Got automount request for /home, triggered by 924
((crub_all))
which then, after a few minutes of waiting for timeouts, causes a few
other services to fail:
mount.nfs4: Network is unreachable
home.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited, status=32/n/a
home.mount: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Failed to mount home.mount - /home.
systemd-logind.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing:
/run/systemd/unit-root/home: No such device
systemd-logind.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning
/lib/systemd/systemd-logind: No such device
NetworkManager.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing:
/run/systemd/unit-root/home: No such device
NetworkManager.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning
/usr/sbin/NetworkManager: No such device
Reached target remote-fs.target - Remote File Systems.
chrony.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing:
/run/systemd/unit-root/home: No such device
chrony.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /usr/sbin/chronyd: No such
device
While the system appears to be usable, systemd shows the services as
having failed, and of course the few minutes of boot delay is also
something that we would like to avoid.
The fix that worked for us was to change the service setting in
e2scrub_reap.service from
ProtectHome=read-only to
[Service]
ProtectHome=yes
which does not trigger the automount system.
