  1. The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy, RequiredBy, Also, Alias
  2. settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance for template units).
  3. This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl.
  4. Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
  5. 1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
  6. .wants/ or .requires/ directory.
  7. 2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
  8. a requirement dependency on it.
  9. 3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
  10. D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).
  11. 4) In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some
  12. instance name specified.
