Maybe, but I don't understand why it takes ~30 seconds to establish a NFSv4 mount. What's the root problem here?
Well, the root problem is NFS :-).
I don't understand any of what is going on with systemd and network mounts. I don't timeout, my network mounts simply fail right away:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
(I think that's the bug I'm seeing).
Anyway, I just wrote a couple of shell scripts. One finds all the NFS mountpoints not marked noauto in the /etc/fstab, then it invokes the other script in the background, passing it the name of the mountpoint.
I had similrar issues, that I never managed to copletely understand. I now use systemd's automount functionality: I Added comment=systemd.automount to the options for the NFS mounts and now I see the first mount fails, but systemd gets back to these mount points later and then correctly mounts them. Might be worth a try....
