Strange NFS Problem

Dear all,
in one of our SLES 10 NFS Client there is this statement in its
/etc/fstab:

NFS-Server:/tools /tools nfs hard,bg,intr,noatime 0 0

In a case where a reboot of the NFS Server and this client is necessary
- due to some reasons we have to boot the client first and then it's
NFS Server - we would expect that the client's NFS request is trying
in the background to get the NFS /tools system as long as the NFS server
is up and running.
But that's not the case: We have to do a #mount -a on the client site to get
/tools.
Why?

THX in advance for any help!
Rainer

UMOUNT.NFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     UMOUNT.NFS(8)

NAME
umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System SYNOPSIS
umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ] DESCRIPTION
umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality. umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the umount(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality. dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted. OPTIONS
-f Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system. -v Be verbose. -n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip delet- ing an entry. -r In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only. -l Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it is not busy anymore. -h Print help message. NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and umount(8) manual pages. FILES
