Hi *, I've read the man pages and some more documentation about the mount behaviour of systemd, but I couldn't find a definitive answer to my questions. I have a backup script, that copies all files to backup to a hard disk partition, then duplicates the partition to one on a second disk, which in turn is changed every day. Before duplicating, the script tries to umount the partition on the original disk, does an fsck and then mounts the partition read only. When duplicating is finished, the original partition is remounted read write again. The script uses the "ancient" mount and umount commands, but once in a while, systemd takes over and remounts the disk, before fsck has been finished. So my questions are:
1. How can I prevent systemd from mounting a manually unmounted partition? The partiton should be mounted automatically during system start, though. 2. If I would switch from mount/umount to pure systemd behaviour for mounting and unmounting partitons in my script, would a command like "systemctl stop|start /var/backup" be sufficient? And how would a remount command (for read only or read write) look like? TIA. Bye.
