Gluster users - Nov 2012 - Prevent mount from hanging on reboot

Hi,

I am trying to find the correct set of options to put in the fstab entry
for my mount so that failed glusterfs mounts will be ignored on bootup
instead of hanging the boot process for manual intervention.  For example,
I would like to use something the nfs option "bg" to do a background
mount
- see http://linux.die.net/man/5/nfs

Thanks,

Jon

How about using the automounter instead of /etc/fstab?

Use the mount option, "_netdev" which is not really a mount option but
is actually an option used by the startup scripts. The gluster mount 
will make noise about ignoring it, but that's irrelevant.
