Fixed In Version:	autofs-5.0.7-77.el7
Doc Type:	Bug Fix
Doc Text:	Due to changes to the master map reading, master map entries were not being initialized properly when a map re-read was needed at startup. This happened due to a mismatch in the master map entry age that used to check if the entry needed to be updated. The entries were not updated properly. As a consequence, autofs ended up with non-functional or partially functional automount mounts. With this update, the master map is now properly read. As a result, the master map is correctly initialized and works correctly after startup.

Description Pierguido Lambri 2017-10-19 10:38:09 EDT

Description of problem:
After a RHEL 7.4 system is rebooted, the system cannot access the exported shares
of a NFS server using the builtin host maps.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
autofs-5.0.7-69.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
So far I've not been able to reproduce it

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A

Actual results:
The system is not able to access the nfs exported shares.

Expected results:
The system should be able to access the NFS exports just after a reboot

Additional info:
A workaround is to restart autofs after the boot.
