Your question is a little bit unclear. Could you be more specific? – Olimjon Jan 11 '19 at 15:11

From https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab:
default is every 30 mounts
Run this to see your current setting:
sudo dumpe2fs -h /dev/sda1 | grep "Maximum mount count"
I have a value of -1 instead of the 30 that help.ubuntu.com is telling me. You can use sudo tune2fs -c XXX /dev/sdXY to change the frequency.
See this thread on ubuntuforums.org.
