I make fstab mount options include:

That way it is only mounted on demand, i.e. when the mount point is "touched".
It's also possible to use x-systemd.idle-timeout=300 which will
unmount it after 5 minutes idle.
I'll admit that I've lost track of this thread. I think it is more about poc's
issue than the
OP. And, I don't know if poc has given up on the systemd mounts.
While I don't have a dock, I do use systemd's automount features on some NAS
mounts
as I don't want/need them to be mounted all the time. They have been mounted
at boot time
even though I thought they should not have been. I'm pretty sure poc's systemd
units
were close to mine. I created my systemd units as described in various
tutorials.
The mount unit does contain noauto in the options.
The mounting at boot time didn't bother me since they take no time.
Today I decided to make a change to my units in /etc/systemd/system.
I removed the WantedBy=multi-user.target from the mount unit. I then did a
daemon-reload.
I noted that there were 2 broken syslinks associated with the mounts in
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants so I deleted them. I then rebooted.
It was then I realized I'd forgotten to check that I'd enabled the automount
unit. I hadn't.
So, I enabled it and rebooted.
The mount no longer happens at boot time and the status of the automount unit is
Active: active (waiting). And everything works as expected. Mount upon
accessing the
mount point and unmounting happening after the timeout has expired.
