[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
In ubuntu 14.05.5 I am running into the same issue. I have a iscsi device added in fstab with _netdev switch but doesnt' seem to work. system just hangs at boot, i have to go into recovery mode to comment out the filesystem to get the system to boot. Interested in what others have done as a work around ? appreciate inputs.

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
I have a similar problem when trying to mount a cephfs volume on ubuntu 14.04. It just freezes and I can't do anything about it. I'm unable to figure out why it fails. I am running OpenvSwitch, what I see in boot log is something like this: * Starting configure network device * Starting configure network device security * Starting configure network device security * Starting Mount network filesystems * Starting configure network device * Starting configure network device security * Stopping Mount network filesystems * Starting Mount network filesystems * Starting configure network device * Starting Open vSwitch switch * Stopping Mount network filesystems _ (it's stuck here forever) And my fstab looks like this 10.3.60.25,10.3.60.23,10.3.60.21:/opennebula /var/lib/one ceph _netdev,mount_timeout=10,name=opennebula_cephfs,secretfile=/etc/ceph/ceph.client.opennebula_cephfs.secret 0 0 However worth mentioning that one of the IP's in the list is this machine itself..

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
I seem to be running into this bug on a new build of 14.04.4 when using an LVM on a multipathed ISCSI drive which I am trying to mount at /var/lib/mysql. I'm no upstart guru, so if there is anything I can post to help verify if it is this bug that is causing an issue please let me know. If I just add the 'nobootwait' option to fstab will mysql still wait till the iscsi drive is mounted correctly?

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
I'm really not sure what to make of all this. My fstab has several cifs filesystems in it, and none of them mount at boot regardless of whether _netdev is specified.

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
By the way, in my case it appears to be because mount can't resolve the host name of the CIFS file server. I think this is because systemd is trying to mount the filesystems before the nameserver is finished launching, so perhaps if bind9.service is enabled on the host, systemd needs to wait for it to start before mounting network filesystems? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313513 Title: mountall does not honour _netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
IMO it is not enough to say obsolete documentation, someone should remove it. Some of us have been using *nix for years (or decades), and some of these facilities have been developed and stabilized years ago. We rely on things that used to work to keep working. At the very least, one should revise old documentation to clarify that some older method has been deprecated (as in java documentation), and the new method should be referenced, together with conversion methods and/or tools. We want to build on previous work. We don't want all of our sand castles to fall down. In my case, I also find that _netdev does not work on a recent installation of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS (upgraded to .3) on Lenovo D20 (dual Xeon), but mysteriously it DOES work on a 1 y.o. installation (upgraded to 14.04.3 LTS) on HP 500-189 (AMD A10). That suggests to me that there must be some interaction(s) between packages? My old installation has everything (including the kitchen sink), but my new installation is rather spare (tho not exactly minimum). What is annoying is I want/need to NFS mount my /home directories on my new install as well. I will try autofs (waits longer, delaying during remainder of boot, until I try to login) instead of hard NFS mount during boot sequence. Still, it is annoying when things that used to work suddenly stop working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313513 Title: mountall does not honour _netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
mountall blocks only those parts of the boot process that are marked as depending on the relevant filesystem. And by default, mountall assumes that the 'filesystem' event should not be emitted until all filesystems under /usr and /var are mounted. If this is not the correct policy for your use case, you can override the behavior with the 'nobootwait' option in /etc/fstab. However, in this case that would seem to just be a workaround for the ceph client itself blocking on the 'filesystem' event when it shouldn't. Are you using the Ubuntu ceph package on the client? If so, this bug should be reassigned there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313513 Title: mountall does not honour _netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
While the mount(8) manpage says that _netdev causes the mount to be deferred until the network is up, this manpage was written in a bygone era when network up was a discrete event, which it hasn't been for a long time. The current behavior is that _netdev devices will be tried immediately on boot, and tried again each time a network interface comes up. If this doesn't give the desired results, I think this is a bug in the ceph driver - not in mountall, which has been tested with _netdev (and network filesystems) repeatedly and shown to work correctly. As seen from the attached snapshot, it doesn't bother to wait, and blindly tries to mount the RBD before connecting to Ceph: this will never work. If there is a specific connection that needs to be made before running the mount command, then I don't think that's something mountall can be expected to handle. Something else on the system would need to intercept the request for a ceph mount, and block it until ceph is available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313513 Title: mountall does not honour _netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ahh, so out of date documentation strikes again. Ahh well, we should perhaps amend that documentation. Or an equivalent feature re-instated, as I believe there are valid use cases for the old _netdev behaviour.

If this doesn't give the desired results, I think this is a bug in the ceph driver - not in mountall, which has been tested with _netdev (and network filesystems) repeatedly and shown to work correctly. The trouble is it hangs waiting for a /dev/rbd device to appear, which won't happen until the 'rbdmap' service is started. Once 'rbdmap' has done its duty, mount works as expected (and thus, mountall should also work). As seen from the attached snapshot, it doesn't bother to wait, and blindly tries to mount the RBD before connecting to Ceph: this will never work. If there is a specific connection that needs to be made before running the mount command, then I don't think that's something mountall can be expected to handle. Something else on the system would need to intercept the request for a ceph mount, and block it until ceph is available. How about not blocking the entire system boot so the machine remains unresponsive and impossible to connect to remotely? Some of the machines we look after are stuck in military bases or underground in mines: it's not like we can just stroll up to the console and press a button. Had the 'mountall' not stalled the entire boot sequence, but allowed the boot to proceed minus the /var/lib/one whilst continuing to retry, it might've found the device it needed would appear in time. I can understand the let's wait it out and see if it appears, but not the let's halt everything until the device magically appears. The latter is dangerous for any system for which local console access is difficult or unavailable. (As is my case here, with the buggered keyboard.)

[Bug 1313513] Re: mountall does not honour _netdev
As a point of interest, this is an `rbdmount` script I use with upstart as a work-around to the mountall issue. It assumes that the devices listed in /etc/ceph/rbdmap are intended to be mounted locally, and so calls mount on each listed device that appears. Very much a hack: it'd be more elegant for mountall to not block the boot process. ** Attachment added: rbdmount.conf upstart script workaround https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+attachment/417/+files/rbdmount.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313513 Title: mountall does not honour _netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/1313513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
