Rough bisection discovered that everything works fine again with the following patches disabled in systemd: #Patch0546: 0546-path-util-make-use-of-mnt_id-field-exported-in-proc-.patch #Patch0549: 0549-test-path-util-force-rm_rf.patch #Patch0551: 0551-mount-make-sure-we-unmount-tmpfs-mounts-before-we-de.patch #Patch0561: 0561-automount-if-an-automount-unit-is-masked-don-t-react.patch #Patch0601: 0601-automount-ack-automount-requests-even-when-already-m.patch #Patch0609: 0609-core-don-t-choke-if-a-unit-another-unit-triggers-van.patch (likely this is a bit overkill, at least the problem still exists if we disable only 601 and 609). I can confirm this is broken in 7.5 also. all my automounts nolonger work. fix merged to staging branch -> https://github.com/lnykryn/systemd-rhel/pull/260 -> post fix merged to github master branch -> https://github.com/systemd-rhel/rhel-7/pull/26 -> post Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Actual results: mnt-auto.test.automount unit is in failed state. Expected results: mnt-auto.test.automount is active. Additional info: Worked fine in 7.4, seems to become broken in systemd from 7.5.
