<title>Special User Units</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>When systemd runs as a user instance, the
|
|
following special units are available, which have
|
|
similar definitions as their system counterparts:
|
|
<filename>default.target</filename>,
|
|
<filename>local-fs.target</filename>,
|
|
<filename>remote-fs.target</filename>,
|
|
<filename>shutdown.target</filename>,
|
|
<filename>sockets.target</filename>,
|
|
<filename>swap.target</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In addition the following special unit is
|
|
understood only when systemd runs as service instance:</para>
|
|
|
|
<variablelist>
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term><filename>exit.service</filename></term>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>A special service unit
|
|
for shutting down the
|
|
user service manager.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Applications wanting to
|
|
terminate the user service
|
|
manager should start this
|
|
unit. If systemd receives
|
|
SIGTERM or SIGINT when running
|
|
as user service daemon it will
|
|
start this unit.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Normally, this pulls in
|
|
<filename>shutdown.target</filename>
|
|
which in turn should be
|
|
conflicted by all units that
|
|
want to be shut down on
|
|
user service manager exit.</para>
