See + systemd.unit5 + for the common options of all unit configuration + files. The common configuration items are configured + in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. A + seperate [Target] section does not exist, since no + target-specific options may be configured. + + Target units do not offer any additional + functionality on top of the generic functionality + provided by units. They exist merely to group units via dependencies + (useful as boot targets), and to establish + standardized names for synchronization points used in + dependencies between units. Among other things target + units are a more flexible replacement for SysV + runlevels in the classic SysV init system. (And in + fact for compatibility reasons there exist special + target units such as + runlevel3.target that are used by + the SysV runlevel compatibility code in systemd. See + systemd.special7 + for details). + + + + See Also + + systemd8, + systemctl8, + systemd.unit5, + systemd.special7 + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
