I'm just picturing the administrator trying to start the Docker service, but it keeps failing because the volume isn't mounted yet. Talk about a mount-uous task!

Wait, should we be using 'Wants' instead of 'Requires'? That way the Docker service will still start even if the mount fails, but it'll try to use the mounted volume if it's available.

D seems like the way to go. The 'RequiresMountsFor' directive tells systemd to wait for the specific mount unit to be active before starting the Docker service.

I'm pretty sure the answer is A. The 'After' directive ensures that the Docker service starts after the mount unit is active.

Yes, 'After' directive will make sure the Docker service starts after the volume is mounted.

Option C makes the most sense to me. The 'Requires' directive ensures that the Docker service won't start until the docker-repository.mount unit is active.

I'm not sure, but I think option A) After=docker-repository.mount could also work. It specifies that the Docker service should start after the specified mount unit is active.

I agree with Laura. Adding Requires=docker-repository.mount to the Docker service definition will make sure that the service waits for the volume to be mounted before starting.

I think the answer is C) Requires=docker-repository.mount because it ensures that the Docker service will only start if the specified volume is mounted.
