Package: bareos-filedaemon Version: 16.2.6-5 Severity: normal If an NFS mount fails, the Bareos FD won't start. But (at least by default) the LinuxAll fileset excludes NFS-mounted directories anyway, so such directories would not be backed up anyway.
IOW, there's no actual reason for the FD not to start in this situation. Here are the relevant error messages from the systemd journal: -- The unit mnt-kerberised\x2dnfs\x2dtesting.mount has entered the 'failed' state with result 'exit-code'.
