I have a NFS filesystem mounted by autofs at /pub that needs to be bind mounted in various places such as /var/www/pub and /var/ftp/pub. So I create a unit that looks like: ~~~ <pre># /etc/systemd/system/var-www-pub.mount [Unit] Description=mount /pub served via httpd Requires=autofs.service After=autofs.service [Mount] What=/mnt/pub Where=/var/www/pub Options=bind,context=system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target</pre> ~~~ The above worked for a long time, but once again a `dnf upgrade` seems to have broken things because now I have a ordering cycle that systemd must break. Since I haven't changed my mount units, my ability to mesh with those shipped by the OS proves fragile. I'm deliberately avoiding too much detail here because it would seem that there should be a relatively simple solution to this general sort of task -- I just can't seem to discover it. Any recommendations that don't involve an entirely different approach? </body> </html>
