# Source Target FSType Flags CryptName Parallel # # The Parallel field controls mount ordering. Entries with Parallel=1 are # launched concurrently with the preceding entries. An entry with Parallel=0 # acts as a barrier: all previously launched mounts must complete before it # starts. This lets you express dependencies by position — for example, # individual drives can mount in parallel, then a mergerfs union that depends # on them uses Parallel=0 to wait. /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 xfs defaults none 1 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdc1 xfs defaults sdc1 1 # Merged — waits for the parallel mounts above to finish before starting. /mnt/sdb1:/mnt/sdc1 /mnt/merged mergerfs config=/etc/mergerfs.ini,allow_other,use_ino,fsname=merged none 0
