i have containers which mount smb shares from a freebsd server. i added the smb shares to the fstab within the container. the container is privileged and cifs is checked for options in proxmox. i noticed that mounting would not occur properly. sometimes they would mount, sometimes they would not, sometimes one would and the rest wouldn’t. i added _netdev to the fstab options. i only tried once so far but they all mounted this time. _netdev is a flag that makes the mount wait for a network device prior to attempting the mount. i thought that this was done automatically if cifs was being used in fstab. maybe i am wrong or maybe proxmox needs this for containers when they boot? i only tested it once because i cant just keep rebooting this container. i may try another container just to see how it goes. but the first time seemed to work fine. hopefully this is no longer a problem.
