It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

<literal>isolate</literal>,

|

<literal>replace</literal>, except when the
|
|
<command>isolate</command> command is used which implies the
|
|
<literal>isolate</literal> job mode.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <literal>fail</literal> is specified and a requested
|
|
operation conflicts with a pending job (more specifically:
|
|
causes an already pending start job to be reversed into a stop
|
|
job or vice versa), cause the operation to fail.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <literal>replace</literal> (the default) is
|
|
specified, any conflicting pending job will be replaced, as
|
|
necessary.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <literal>replace-irreversibly</literal> is specified,
|
|
operate like <literal>replace</literal>, but also mark the new
|
|
jobs as irreversible. This prevents future conflicting
|
|
transactions from replacing these jobs (or even being enqueued
|
|
while the irreversible jobs are still pending). Irreversible
|
|
jobs can still be cancelled using the <command>cancel</command>
|

command.</para>
|

|
|
<para><literal>isolate</literal> is only valid for start
|

operations and causes all other units to be stopped when the

specified unit is started. This mode is always used when the

|
<command>isolate</command> command is used.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><literal>flush</literal> will cause all queued jobs to
|
|
be canceled when the new job is enqueued.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <literal>ignore-dependencies</literal> is specified,
|
|
then all unit dependencies are ignored for this new job and
|
|
the operation is executed immediately. If passed, no required
|
|
units of the unit passed will be pulled in, and no ordering
|
|
dependencies will be honored. This is mostly a debugging and
|
|
rescue tool for the administrator and should not be used by
|
|
applications.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><literal>ignore-requirements</literal> is similar to
|
|
<literal>ignore-dependencies</literal>, but only causes the
|
|
requirement dependencies to be ignored, the ordering
|
|
dependencies will still be honoured.</para>

<para>When system shutdown or a sleep state is requested,

shutdown and sleep state requests will normally fail

is specified, the locks are ignored and not printed, and the

operation attempted anyway, possibly requiring additional

agents) or the service might fail. This also disables

processes to send a signal to. Must be one of
|
|
<option>main</option>, <option>control</option> or
|
|
<option>all</option> to select whether to kill only the main
|
|
process, the control process or all processes of the
|
|
unit. The main process of the unit is the one that defines
|
|
the life-time of it. A control process of a unit is one that
|
|
is invoked by the manager to induce state changes of it. For
|
|
example, all processes started due to the
|
|
<varname>ExecStartPre=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>ExecStop=</varname> or
|
|
<varname>ExecReload=</varname> settings of service units are
|
|
control processes. Note that there is only one control
|
|
process per unit at a time, as only one state change is
|
|
executed at a time. For services of type
|
|
<varname>Type=forking</varname>, the initial process started
|
|
by the manager for <varname>ExecStart=</varname> is a
|
|
control process, while the process ultimately forked off by
|
|
that one is then considered the main process of the unit (if
|
|
it can be determined). This is different for service units
|
|
of other types, where the process forked off by the manager
|
|
for <varname>ExecStart=</varname> is always the main process
|
|
itself. A service unit consists of zero or one main process,
|
|
zero or one control process plus any number of additional
|
|
processes. Not all unit types manage processes of these
|
|
types however. For example, for mount units, control processes
|
|
are defined (which are the invocations of
|
|
<filename>/usr/bin/mount</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/usr/bin/umount</filename>), but no main process
|
|
is defined. If omitted, defaults to

<option>all</option>.</para>

suggested places (for example, so that the unit is

automatically started on boot or when a particular kind of

the path to the new system manager binary below it to

execute as PID 1. If the latter is omitted or the empty

equal to the empty string, the state of the initrd's system

manager process is passed to the main system manager, which

<title>Parameter Syntax</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unit commands listed above take either a single unit name
|
|
(designated as <replaceable>NAME</replaceable>), or multiple
|
|
unit specifications (designated as
|
|
<replaceable>PATTERN</replaceable>...). In the first case, the
|
|
unit name with or without a suffix must be given. If the suffix
|
|
is not specified, systemctl will append a suitable suffix,
|
|
<literal>.service</literal> by default, and a type-specific
|
|
suffix in case of commands which operate only on specific unit
|
|
types. For example,
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl start sshd</programlisting> and
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl start sshd.service</programlisting>
|
|
are equivalent, as are
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl isolate snapshot-11</programlisting>
|
|
and
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl isolate snapshot-11.snapshot</programlisting>
|
|
Note that (absolute) paths to device nodes are automatically
|
|
converted to device unit names, and other (absolute) paths to
|
|
mount unit names.
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl status /dev/sda
|
|
# systemctl status /home</programlisting>
|
|
are equivalent to:
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl status dev-sda.device
|
|
# systemctl status home.mount</programlisting>
|
|
In the second case, shell-style globs will be matched against
|
|
currently loaded units; literal unit names, with or without
|
|
a suffix, will be treated as in the first case. This means that
|
|
literal unit names always refer to exactly one unit, but globs
|
|
may match zero units and this is not considered an error.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Glob patterns use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>fnmatch</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
so normal shell-style globbing rules are used, and
|
|
<literal>*</literal>, <literal>?</literal>,
|
|
<literal>[]</literal> may be used. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glob</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for more details. The patterns are matched against the names of
|
|
currently loaded units, and patterns which do not match anything
|
|
are silently skipped. For example:
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl stop sshd@*.service</programlisting>
|
|
