Hi alltogether,
my first post - so bear with me ;-)

This setup:
Backup Server 3.2-6 running as vm at proxmox virtual environment
Backup store: Hetzner storage box connected via sshfs

This problem:

Backup store does not mount at boot time.
Mounting manually via
mount -va
at any time later does mount backup store without any issues.

The line of fstab:
Code:
uxxxx@uxxxxx.your-storagebox.de:pbs.datastore /mnt/pbs.datastore fuse.sshfs _netdev,port=23,uid=34,gid=34,allow_other 0 0

some log lines related to the error:
Code:
Jul 19 21:02:23 pbs systemd[1]: Mounting mnt-pbs.datastore.mount - /mnt/pbs.datastore...
..
Jul 19 21:02:33 pbs systemd[1]: mnt-pbs.datastore.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

Jul 19 21:02:33 pbs systemd[1]: remote-fs.target: Job remote-fs.target/start failed with result 'dependency'.

log lines for successful manual mount:
Code:
Jul 19 21:03:20 pbs systemd[1]: Mounting mnt-pbs.datastore.mount - /mnt/pbs.datastore...
Jul 19 21:03:20 pbs systemd[1]: Mounted mnt-pbs.datastore.mount - /mnt/pbs.datastore.

Any idea how to nail this down?
