Re: RFC: mount_nfs failure due to dns not running yet

Hi, DNS resolvers can fail transiently, as can UDP. At least some retries seem to make sense. (I don’t use NFS; this is a general comment.) Regards, Jan M. > On 19. Feb 2025, at 23:40, Rick Macklem wrote: > > Hi, > > The subject line basically describes the problem glebius@ > ran into. Wh

RFC: mount_nfs failure due to dns not running yet

Hi, The subject line basically describes the problem glebius@ ran into. When doing an NFS mount in /etc/fstab, it failed since the DNS service was not yet working and, as such, the DNS lookup of the server fqdn failed, causing the mount to fail. Note that this behaviour has existed for decades.
