+# Execute a unit before and after another one
+
+## Use case
+
+In this example, I wanted to mount a file system (/mnt/test).
+But before mounting the filesystem, I wanted to make a backup of it.
+And after, I want to restore the filesystem from the previous backup.
+In addition to that, the backup is stored on another filesystem that needs to be mounted too.
+
+## Install
+
+```sh
+./install.sh
+```
+
+## Test
+
+```sh
+./test.sh
+cat /mnt/test/witness
+```
