+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
+ <filename>.automount</filename> encodes information
+ about a file system automount point controlled and
+ supervised by systemd.</para>
+
+ <para>This man page lists the configuration options
+ specific to this unit type. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for the common options of all unit configuration
+ files. The common configuration items are configured
+ in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The
+ automount specific configuration options are configured
+ in the [Automount] section.</para>
+
+ <para>Automount units must be named after the file
+ paths they reflect. Example: the automount point
+ <filename>/home/lennart</filename> must be configured
+ in a unit file
+ <filename>home-lennart.automount</filename>. For
+ details about the escaping logic used to convert a
+ file system path to a unit name see
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+ <para>For each automount unit file a matching mount
+ unit file (see
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for details) must exist which is activated when the
+ automount path is accessed. Example: if an automount
+ unit <filename>home-lennart.automount</filename> is
+ active and the user accesses
+ <filename>/home/lennart</filename> the mount unit
+ <filename>home-lennart.mount</filename> will be
+ activated.</para>
+
+ <para>Automount units may be used to implement
+ on-demand mounting as well as parallelized mounting of
+ file systems.</para>
+
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title><filename>fstab</filename></title>
+
+ <para>Automount units may either be configured via unit
+ files, or via <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> (see
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for details).</para>
+
+ <para>For details how systemd parses
+ <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> see
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+ <para>If an automount point is configured in both
+ <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> and a unit file the
+ configuration in the latter takes precedence.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Options</title>
+
+ <para>Automount files must include an [Automount]
+ section, which carries information about the file
+ system automount points it supervises. The options
+ specific to the [Automount] section of automount units
+ are the following:</para>
+
+ <variablelist>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><varname>Where=</varname></term>
+ <listitem><para>Takes an absolute path
+ of a directory of the automount
+ point. If the automount point is not
+ existing at time of the automount
+ point is installed it is created. This
+ string must be reflected in the unit
+ file name. (See above.) This option is
+ mandatory.</para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><varname>DirectoryMode=</varname></term>
+ <listitem><para>Directories of automount
+ points (and any parent directories)
+ are automatically created if
+ needed. This option specifies the file
+ system access mode used when creating
+ these directories. Defaults to
+ 0755.</para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
