NAME
systemd-sysv-generator - Unit generator for SysV init scripts
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-sysv-generator
DESCRIPTION
systemd-sysv-generator is a generator that creates wrapper .service units for SysV init[1]
scripts in /etc/init.d/* at boot and when configuration of the system manager is reloaded.
This will allow systemd(1) to support them similarly to native units.
LSB headers[2] in SysV init scripts are interpreted, and the ordering specified in the
header is turned into dependencies between the generated unit and other units. LSB
facilities "$remote_fs", "$network", "$named", "$portmap", "$time" are supported and will
be turned into dependencies on specific native systemd targets. See systemd.special(5) for
more details.
SysV runlevels have corresponding systemd targets (runlevelX.target). Wrapper unit that is
generated will be wanted by those targets which correspond to runlevels for which the
script is enabled.
systemd does not supports SysV scripts as part of early boot, so all wrapper units are
ordered after basic.target.
systemd-sysv-generator implements systemd.generator(7).
