[Bug 1577120] Re: Mounted NFS share prevents shutdown

[James Crook]

I just added a mount in fstab for my NAS, and now get this issue were if i do a large amount of work on the NAS and forget to unmount manually before a shutdown/reboot then Ubuntu hangs at the splash screen.
For now i have added the below to my bash_logout

umount /mnt/NAS


It doesn't happen if i use the GUI to mount the share rather than the fstab, tho that uses Fuse mount stuff (i think)

Title:
  Mounted NFS share prevents shutdown

Status in nfs-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On ubuntu 16.04 I mount an NFS share using "sudo mount ip.ip.ip.ip:/remote_path/remote_path localpath/"
  When I try to shutdown or restart the computer it hangs.
  It appears to be attempting to unmount the NFS share and theres a timeout, but each time it reaches the timeout, it gets increased.

  I have read bug reports that similar issues were present in several previous ubuntu versions.
  One work around was to soft mount instead of the default hard mount.
