It's pretty good at that. It now even can parallelize fsck/mount/daemon startup, thanks to the minimalistic support of direct automount points we have in there. How awesome is that?

The traditional autofs installtions tend to focus on indirect mounts, not direct mounts. systemd does not cover indirect mounts, and it is very unlikely that it ever will. Replacing exisiting autofs installations with the built-in systemd stuff is not possible and out of focus for us. Direct automounts: you establish an automount point /home, and on access a file system is mounted to /home. (i.e. if I access /home/lennart the fs will be mounted to /home) Indirect automounts: you establish an automount point /home, and on access of directory beneath it a file system is mounted on it. (i.e. if I access /home/lennart the fs will be mounted to /home/lennart).

It only does direct mounts, not indirect mounts, and it's all designed to be trivially simple to use (i.e. just add "comment=systemd.automount" to your fstab options), pulling in no further deps for this, and integrate well with the rest of systemd, i.e. doing the full dependency mumbo-jumbo as soon as an automount is triggered. The idea is that it "just works", is tiny, and makes autofs something you want to use without having to think about NIS or LDAP or other configuration maps. (yeah, I know, you don't need NIS/LDAP to configure maps in autofs.) automounting support in systemd is attractive for a number of reasons. The main one is that it allows us to cheaply establish mount points without having to back them with real file systems right-away. That means we can leave the early boot phase much earlier than we traditionally could, since we don't actually need to wait for fsck/mount to complete for all file systems listed in /etc/fstab. This allows us to parallelize fsck/mount and daemon start-up in a fashion previously not possible. This is not necessarily particularly interesting on general purpose systems but on embedded systems it is.

NB they're not mutually exclusive. You can run the regular autofs userspace daemon at the same time as systemd. Systemd will look after any mount points in its unit files, while autofs will look after the mount points from the traditional /etc/auto.master files. They're both just leveraging the same kernel API for automounting. Also systemd is only doing direct autofs mounts, if you want indirect autofs mounts then the regular automount is the one to use.

It appears to use the kernel autofs support but replaces the userspace daemon (and replaces the traditional automounter map file format with system.automount unit files). I can appreciate a benefit for personal systems from systemd managing network file system mounts since it's in a position to know when the network is up (this has been a problem with /etc/fstab, NFS/CIFS and NetworkManger for some time) but I'm not sure that large deployments with existing autofs infrastructures will be so keen to make the switch.

Be a little wary. This is not really fine - systemd should do one thing and do it well ... when it starts to bleed off and try do too many things (with little to zero rationale or benefit) then the chances of things going wrong increase. Just because something 'can' do something does not make it a sensible design. Since systemd is running daemon it could take over any daemon - it could even do everything pulse does :-) Hell any rooted capable daemon process can do the same - autofs could just as easily start other services for that matter ... doesn't make it a good design. Just coz it is doing some mount stuff doesn't mean it should do all mount stuff ... autofs should be left alone to do what it does best. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Well, the design for F15 was pretty much to use systemd as the daemon, but leave all the services as sysv, just as we've been using upstart for years. The only things which were converted to be native were things that it turned out we *had* to convert, because - due to various boring little details about how systemd works - leaving them as sysv-native would have caused significant bugs. the design for f16 is to convert all the 'stock' services you get with a default install, and on the live image (aiui). how else could we do it? it would be impractical to convert every single service in the entire distro in a single six month cycle. unless you're volunteering. ;) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

We'll get those components converted in time hopefully we (FreeIPA) are in close contact with both the MIT Kerberos and Bind maintainers. What you forgot there is that Dogtag is not daemonless, on the countrary it depends on Tomcat, which looks like a mess to convert to systemd. Tomcat seem to be the bit that may stall the whole conversion to be honest.

What I think that you and others are not given credit is that most upstream maintainers have very long lists of things to do.

As much as I would like us to have the authority to "do the code" that unfortunately wont cut it since we lack the expertise, the experience and insight that maintainers have through maintaining their component so having us walsing in and do the conversion might actually be doing more harm then good however working together will deliver the best result. We simply cannot ship something that would lose data or cause critical components to fail for our users. I completly agree and from my pov it's like maintainers do not understand how important that is for us to manage to convert all the 500 - 600 daemons in one release cycle. Beside the obvious unfortinate experience our user may go through like the one Reindl Harald and perhaps others have experienced then this may also break and hinder work for other developers that build their application stack on top of those daemons. One such example is the freeipa stack where the freeipa team needs to rewrite/replace and or add seperated systemd spesific code and if I'm not mistaken they will only support sysv on sysv platforms and systemd on systemd platforms instead of trying to support mixed match of both init system ( Freeipa guys feel free to correct me if I'm wrong ). Freeipa is built on top of 389 Directory Server, MIT Kerberos, NTP, DNS,and Dogtag ( which I dont recall having any daemons ) of that only the NTP has been converted work is being done on converting 389 and I think the native systemd units for freeipa server daemons are ready but they are not being shipped yet however that leaves out bind and mit kerberos with no movement what so ever on those two components atleast there has been no respons on the relevant bug report for those two components as is with so many others and I have not heard a word from either of those maintainers on irc. Now their new code depends on all of those components to be converted and it does not take more then one of those components to not convert and their whole work is being thrown out the window and they are forced to rewrite their code to support a mixed batch of sysv legacy scripts and native systemd units and they have the time from from Beta to GA to test that code on that mixed batch of init files which at the same time those unit files might be subdued to various testing and rewriting as an indvidual standalone services. See my point on how vital it can be to convert to those unit files as soon as possible and that's just one application stack built on top of five components. The main problem here are the maintainers that do not respond to the bug report or when I ping them on irc because then I dont get the status from them which in turn FESCO wont either since I deliver them progress report on each meeting along with keeping [1] updated. I'm not asking for much of maintainers *valuable* time (apparently others people time does not matter here. We are all busy with work life and what not, expecial those of us that are not working full time on fedora and are doing this work on our freetime and apparently it's not considered rude on maintainers behalf to not respond to bug reports to the people reporting them ) only that they respond if they are looking at this or not or will be after a week for that matter.

When you propose and implement a massive change, you need to make sure that the system as a whole still works. Of course, the developers of code components *should* work with the systemd team, but if they don't (don't like it, have higher priorities, whatever), then the proponents of change need to do the heavy lifting. Heavy lifting can involve education, convincing others in a *nice* way or actually having to do the code. We simply cannot ship something that would lose data or cause critical components to fail for our users.

That said, we must insure that critical services all work, especially for storage and file systems where screws will lose data and we will end up losing users.

I was told to remove it because it's "critical path", which isn't entirely true.

SysV was only released in 1983 (and even after that time there were alternatives - the BSDs never adopted this approach to system initialisation).

Glad to hear it worked for you though ;-) i noticd with real anger and was able to restore the systemd-files from my second machine before update there it makes me really sad to see that F15 was released as a br**ead mix auf sysv/lsb/systemd and there is no way to get this clean without "making all yourself" hopefully systemd will aslo live for 40 years as sysvinit did or the next replacement will be finished BEFORE release including the correspondending parts of the distribution signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Glad to hear it worked for you though ;-) You mean in F15? Or do you mean in rawhide as well? Id be interested in using unofficial F15 systemd enabled packages if there was some need to test on F15 systems as well as rawhide. -jef -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Unfortunately, I was told I should remove the systemd support in particular, so I did.
