There has been an number startup problems where parts of
the NFS server fail to start due to DNS and other
parts of the network not be up.

Reading the systemd.special it seems network.target is
a passive unit which does not wait and network-online.target
is an active unit which does not wait so that
should be used.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1419351

I assume that last "not" should not be there?

According to systemd.special, we should add
  Wants=network-online.target
though "Requires" is probably OK.

nfs-server.service already has
 Requires= network.target
which you didn't change.

Also nfs-mountd rpc-statd-notify and rpc.statd all have
 After = network.target

They should probably be changed too ??

Thanks,
NeilBrown

I did see that... but the bug report said After= 
worked so I went with that...

I think that is dangerous, though obviously not very...

On my openSUSE system,
  systemctl show network-online.target | grep By=
only shows
  WantedBy=winbind.service

If I didn't have winbind installed, nothing would want the .target, so
it wouldn't be activated, so nfs-server wouldn't be ordered with it.

The network still comes up because the services that activate it are
WantedBy=multi-user.target
so nfs-server will (eventually) work, but there is no guarantee of
ordering.
I think it would be safest to follow the man page and Want or Require
network-online.target, rather than assume that something else will.
