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