Title:
  nfs mounts happen before network is up

Status in NULL Project:

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: upstart

  My server tries to make three NFS mounts, as specified in /etc/fstab.
  I use a host name in the fstab entry and that host name is in my
  /etc/hosts.  However on boot, I get these error messages:

  
  mount.nfs: DNS resolution failed for nfshost: Name or service not known
  mountall: mount /home/foo/Maildir [622] terminated with status 32

  After the boot completes though, the mounts are working.   The
  /etc/fstab entry looks like this:

  nfshost:/c/backup/foomail       /home/foo/Maildir       nfs
  defaults,hard,intr,nolock       0       0

  Changing 'nfshost' to the IP address does not help.  I'm guessing its
  an upstart boot order problem where the mounts are attempted before
  networking is up.  Then, once networking comes up, the mount is
  retried and succeeds.
