Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi Michael,

I am using /etc/fstab

I solved the problem for my case by adding: "name-of-mount.mount" in the end of the After line like this:

After=network.target remote-fs.target name-of-mount.mount

I found the name-of-mount using

> systemctl list-units --type=mount

I used this for help: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/247547

Obviously this doesn’t work in a general case, only for my deployment system. For now I have edited the generator.py file of manage-procs.  I haven't looked at used autofs before.

I will follow the github issue you've made and post anything else there if I think of anything.

Best

Will

I mount a network drive over nfs at boot that contains the built IOC binaries for the service to run. The service is enabled, it should start at boot but it doesn’t because the ConditionPathIsDirectory fails. If I go to the directory after the system has booted, I can see that it has been mounted correctly and exists. I cc Wayne because I seem to remember us having a similar problem at ESS about 2 years ago but I can’t remember how we solved it! Does anybody have any ideas?

How is the relevant NFS share being mounted?  Via /etc/fstab, autofs, or some other initiator?

I think that "After=network.target remote-fs.target" should be enough to ensure ordering.  You could try adding "Requires=network.target remote-fs.target".
