Doc Text:
The system no longer fails to terminate with `/usr` on *iSCSI* or *NFS* In previous versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, the termination of the system sometimes failed and the system remained hung if the `/usr` folder was mounted over a network (e.g. *NFS* or *iSCSI*). This issue has been resolved, and the system should now shut down normally.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1369790 +++

Description of problem:
There are errors when shutting down a system with /usr on iSCSI (/boot, / and swap are on a local disk):

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-7.2 GA
RHEL-7.3 Beta (anaconda-21.48.22.82-1.el7, systemd-219-26.el7, dracut-033-453.el7)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a system with /usr on iSCSI and /boot, / and swap stored on a local disk
2. try to reboot the installed system

Actual results:
error messages, connection timeout, system doesn't reboot

Expected results:
system reboots without errors, all file systems are unmounted cleanly

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This bug blocks initscripts BZ #1369790. We are using this code to test if the  root or /usr is located on network block device:

> systemctl show --property=RequiredBy -- -.mount usr.mount | grep -q 'remote-fs.target'
(https://github.com/fedora-sysv/initscripts/blob/master/rc.d/init.d/network#L165)

It is expected that the output of command above will contain 'remote-fs.target'. However, currently for /usr located on network block device it shows this:
> RequiredBy=initrd-root-fs.target

(This issue has been more discussed on github here:
https://github.com/fedora-sysv/initscripts/pull/94)

Comment 1 Lukáš Nykrýn 2017-04-28 12:47:34 UTC
Dracut only mounts /usr by itself when there is no systemd present. Otherwise this is don in fstab generator.
