RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: systemd-219-32.el7
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Feature: Support for automatically unmounting a mounted file system after specified amount of time. This is done via the 'x-systemd.idle-timeout' option that can be used along with other options in /etc/fstab. Reason: Customer asked for it. It's a generally useful feature. Result: The feature was backported from upstream and is now supported.

Description Jayaram 2016-07-11 09:23:47 UTC 
Description of problem:

.NFS automount in systemd, but x-systemd.idle-timeout doesn't unmount the filesystem after the specified amount of time


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

RHEL7.2 -- 
3.10.0-327.10.1.el7.x86_64 --
systemd-219-19.el7_2.4.x86_64
nfs-utils-1.3.0-0.21.el7_2.x86_64


How reproducible:

In /etc/fstab the nfs entry as follows;--

~~~
192.168.122.2:/storage /mnt nfs noauto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.device-timeout=10,x-systemd.idle-timeout=1800,nofail,timeo=14,nolock 0 0
~~~

Note: here i tried with different timeout value, still not luck

#cat  /var/run/systemd/generator/mnt.mount
=======================
# Automatically generated by systemd-fstab-generator

[Unit]
SourcePath=/etc/fstab
Documentation=man:fstab(5) man:systemd-fstab-generator(8)

[Mount]
What=192.168.122.2:/storage
Where=/mnt
Type=nfs
Options=noauto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=1800,nofail,timeo=14,nolock
=======================

#cat  /var/run/systemd/generator/mnt.automount
=====================
# Automatically generated by systemd-fstab-generator

[Unit]
SourcePath=/etc/fstab
Documentation=man:fstab(5) man:systemd-fstab-generator(8)
Before=remote-fs.target
[Automount]
Where=/mnt
=====================

>> Reboot the machine

>> Access the share by 
#df -h /mnt
Filesystem              Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
192.168.122.2:/storage  6.5G  2.4G  3.8G  39% /mnt



Actual results:

It is not unmonting the share after the timeout value 1800 which is 30min. 


Expected results:

It should unmount the NFS share after the timeout value.
Comment 5 giulioo 2016-10-24 17:37:55 UTC 
According to 
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/NEWS
the "x-systemd.idle-timeout" directive was added in systemd 220.

RHEL7.2 ships with systemd-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64
and, according to the rpm's changelog, nothing related to it has been manually patched:

$ rpm -q systemd
systemd-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64
$ rpm -ql --changelog systemd|grep idle
$

so it seems it's normal for RHEL7's systemd to ignore it.
