What is the expected behaviour of the disk input plugin for systemd automounted drives?

[tjb36]

Please direct all support questions to Slack or the forums. Thank you.

I have an NFS share which is configured with x-systemd.automount in the fstab file. Since I also have in fstab the parameter x-systemd.idle-timeout=10 , I expect my drive to unmount automatically again until needed.

I want to use the inputs.disk plugin to monitor the disk usage of this NFS drive. Do I expect that the inputs.disk plugin is able to remount the drive in order to collect the metric?

I have mentioned this here, but am still struggling to get clarification.

In the "Bug fixes" for V1.5 here, I see "Always ignore autofs filesystems in disk input." Is this relevant for what I am asking, or is this simply about ignoring already-mounted drive which have the tag "aufs" ?

Please advise. Thank you.
