<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
|
|
<filename>.timer</filename> encodes information about
|
|
a timer controlled and supervised by systemd, for
|
|
timer-based activation.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This man page lists the configuration options
|
|
specific to this unit type. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for the common options of all unit configuration
|
|
files. The common configuration items are configured
|
|
in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The
|
|
timer specific configuration options are configured in
|
|
the [Timer] section.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For each timer file, a matching unit file must
|
|
exist, describing the unit to activate when the timer
|
|
elapses. By default, a service by the same name as the
|
|
timer (except for the suffix) is activated. Example: a
|
|
timer file <filename>foo.timer</filename> activates a
|
|
matching service <filename>foo.service</filename>. The
|
|
unit to activate may be controlled by
|
|
<varname>Unit=</varname> (see below).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unless <varname>DefaultDependencies=</varname>
|
|
is set to <option>false</option>, timer units will
|
|
implicitly have dependencies of type
|
|
<varname>Conflicts=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>Before=</varname> on
|
|
<filename>shutdown.target</filename>. These ensure
|
|
that timer units are stopped cleanly prior to system
|
|
shutdown. Only timer units involved with early boot or
|
|
late system shutdown should disable this
|
|
option.</para>

<title>Options</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Timer files must include a [Timer] section,
|
|
which carries information about the timer it
|
|
defines. The options specific to the [Timer] section
|
|
of timer units are the following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<variablelist>
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term><varname>OnActive=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>OnBootup=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>OnStartup=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>OnUnitActive=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>OnUnitInactive=</varname></term>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Defines timers
|
|
relative to different starting points:
|
|
<varname>OnActive=</varname> defines a
|
|
timer relative to the moment the timer
|
|
itself is
|
|
activated. <varname>OnBootup=</varname>
|
|
defines a timer relative to when the
|
|
machine was booted
|
|
up. <varname>OnStartup=</varname>
|
|
defines a timer relative to when
|
|
systemd was
|
|
started. <varname>OnUnitActive=</varname>
|
|
defines a timer relative to when the
|
|
unit the timer is activating was last
|
|
activated. <varname>OnUnitInactive=</varname>
|
|
defines a timer relative to when the
|
|
unit the timer is activating was last
|
|
deactivated.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Multiple directives may be
|
|
combined of the same and of different
|
|
types. For example, by combining
|
|
<varname>OnBoot=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>OnUnitActive=</varname> it is
|
|
possible to define a timer that
|
|
elapses in regular intervals and
|
|
activates a specific service each
|
|
time.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The arguments to the directives
|
|
are time spans configured in
|
|
seconds. Example: "OnBoot=50" means
|
|
50s after boot-up. The argument may
|
|
also include time units. Example:
|
|
"OnBoot=5h 30min" means 5 hours and 30
|
|
minutes after boot-up. For details
|
|
about the syntax of time spans see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If a timer configured with
|
|
<varname>OnBootup=</varname> or
|
|
<varname>OnStartup=</varname> is
|
|
already in the past when the timer
|
|
unit is activated, it will immediately
|
|
elapse and the configured unit is
|
|
started. This is not the case for
|
|
timers defined in the other
|
|
directives.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<para>These are monotonic timers,
|
|
independent of wall-clock time and timezones. If the
|
|
computer is temporarily suspended, the
|
|
monotonic clock stops too.</para>

<listitem><para>The unit to activate

when this timer elapses. The argument is a

unit name, whose suffix is not

specified, this value defaults to a

service that has the same name as the

that the unit name that is activated
