<para>Unless <varname>DefaultDependencies=</varname>
|
|
|
|
|
is set to <option>false</option>, service units will
|
|
|
|
|
implicitly have dependencies of type
|
|
|
|
|
<varname>Requires=</varname> and
|
|
|
|
|
<varname>After=</varname> on
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>basic.target</filename> as well as
|
|
|

dependencies of type <varname>Conflicts=</varname> and
|
|
|
|
|
<varname>Before=</varname> on
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>shutdown.target</filename>. These ensure
|
|
|
|
|
that normal service units pull in basic system
|
|
|
|
|
initialization, and are terminated cleanly prior to
|
|
|
|
|
system shutdown. Only services involved with early
|
|
|
|
|
boot or late system shutdown should disable this
|
|
|

option.</para>

|
<para>If a service is requested under a certain name
|
|
|
|
|
but no unit configuration file is found, systemd looks
|
|
|
|
|
for a SysV init script by the same name (with the
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>.service</filename> suffix removed) and
|
|
|
|
|
dynamically creates a service unit from that
|
|
|
|
|
script. This is useful for compatibility with
|
|
|
|
|
SysV.</para>

functionality to other processes on

the system its communication channels

should be installed before the daemon

is started up (e.g. sockets set up by

systemd, via socket activation), as

expected to exit when start-up is

|
traditional UNIX daemons. If this

setting is used, it is recommended to

|
|
|
|
also use the

|
<varname>PIDFile=</varname> option, so
|
|
|
|

that systemd can identify the main
