other words: unit-specific timeouts
are useful to abort unit state
changes, and revert them. The job
timeout set with this option however
is useful to abort only the job waiting

are called 'activating', 'deactivating'). A special
'maintenance' state is available as well which is very
similar to 'inactive' and is entered when the service
failed in some way (process returned error code on
exit, or crashed, or an operation timed out). If this
state is entered the cause will be logged, for later
reference. Note that the various unit types may have a
number of additional substates, which are mapped to
the five generalized unit states described
here.</para>

<para>systemd knows various kinds of dependencies,
including positive and negative requirement
dependencies (i.e. <varname>Requires=</varname> and
<varname>Conflicts=</varname>) as well as ordering
dependencies (<varname>After=</varname> and
<varname>Before=</varname>). NB: ordering and
requirement dependencies are orthogonal. If only a
requirement dependency exists between two units
(e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename> requires
<filename>bar.service</filename>), but no ordering
dependency (e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename>
after <filename>bar.service</filename>) and both are
requested to start, they will be started in
parallel. It is a common pattern that both requirement
and ordering dependencies are placed between two
units. Also note that the majority of dependencies are
implicitly created and maintained by systemd. In most
cases it should be unnecessary to declare additional
dependencies manually, however it is possible to do
this.</para>
<para>Application programs and units (via
dependencies) may requests state changes of units. In
systemd, these requests are encapsulated as 'jobs' and
maintained in a job queue. Jobs may succeed or can
fail, their execution is ordered based on the ordering
dependencies of the units they have been scheduled
for.</para>
