| 14228c0d | 23 | "<code class="literal">.automount</code>" encodes information |
| 663996b3 MS |
24 | about a file system automount point controlled and |
| 25 | supervised by systemd.</p><p>This man page lists the configuration options | |
| 26 | specific to this unit type. See | |
| 27 | <a href="systemd.unit.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.unit</span>(5)</span></a> | |
| 28 | for the common options of all unit configuration | |
| 29 | files. The common configuration items are configured | |
| 30 | in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The | |
| 31 | automount specific configuration options are configured | |
| 32 | in the [Automount] section.</p><p>Automount units must be named after the | |
| 33 | automount directories they control. Example: the | |
| 34 | automount point <code class="filename">/home/lennart</code> | |
| 35 | must be configured in a unit file | |
| 36 | <code class="filename">home-lennart.automount</code>. For | |
| 37 | details about the escaping logic used to convert a | |
| 38 | file system path to a unit name see | |
| 39 | <a href="systemd.unit.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.unit</span>(5)</span></a>.</p><p>For each automount unit file a matching mount | |
| 40 | unit file (see | |
| 41 | <a href="systemd.mount.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.mount</span>(5)</span></a> | |
| 42 | for details) must exist which is activated when the | |
| 43 | automount path is accessed. Example: if an automount | |
| 44 | unit <code class="filename">home-lennart.automount</code> is | |
| 45 | active and the user accesses | |
| 46 | <code class="filename">/home/lennart</code> the mount unit | |
| 47 | <code class="filename">home-lennart.mount</code> will be | |
| 48 | activated.</p><p>Automount units may be used to implement | |
| 49 | on-demand mounting as well as parallelized mounting of | |
| 50 | file systems.</p><p>If an automount point is beneath another mount | |
| 14228c0d | 51 | point in the file system hierarchy, a dependency |
| f47781d8 | 52 | between both units is created automatically.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="idm140125240218656"></a><h2 id="fstab"><code class="filename">fstab</code><a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this headline" href="#fstab">¶</a></h2><p>Automount units may either be configured via unit |

| 54 | <a href="fstab.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">fstab</span>(5)</span></a> | |
| 55 | for details).</p><p>For details how systemd parses | |

| 663996b3 MS |
60 | section, which carries information about the file |
| 61 | system automount points it supervises. The options | |
| 62 | specific to the [Automount] section of automount units | |
| 63 | are the following:</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt id="Where="><span class="term"><code class="varname">Where=</code></span><a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this term" href="#Where=">¶</a></dt><dd><p>Takes an absolute path | |

| 67 | point is installed, it is created. This | |
| 663996b3 | 68 | string must be reflected in the unit |
| 14228c0d | 69 | filename. (See above.) This option is |
