To have stratis volumes mounted after system start, on RHEL I need to configure my mounts as follot:

UUID=xxx  /mymount  defaults,x-systemd.requires=stratisd.service  0 0

If I'm right, there's no hint anywhere in a manpage that helps to configure /etc/fstab this way. Where can I add this?

For those who don't know: without this line, system startup will hang during mount:

[ ***  ] A start job is running for /dev/dis...8bd0-c677b2bf0e23 (58s / 1min 30s )

This is actually not entirely correct. This works for unencrypted pools but will not work for encrypted pools. Please see our blog post about setting up Stratis pools in /etc/fstab:

Thank you for bringing this to my attention, good to know. But still, there's no hint in any man page about setting up fstab. As I've seen, @mulkieran added this to a todo list - does this mean it will be added?

@768kb I'll ask, but one thing to consider is that we aim to have our manpage contain information relevant to any distro that it's run on. The setup for /etc/fstab in that blog post is systemd specific. While there are very few distros that don't use systemd, I at least would be a little bit hesitant to add something systemd specific to our manpages. What other documentation sources did you check prior to filing this issue? Perhaps there's a better place to put this information that would have still provided you with the answer prior to having to ask.
