pull in a service that delays

further execution until the

|
<para>Note the distinction

between this unit and

|

(i.e. pulled in by the
|
|
consumer rather than the
|
|
provider of this
|
|
functionality) and pulls in a
|
|
service which possibly adds
|
|
substantial delays to further
|
|
execution. In contrast,
|
|
<filename>network.target</filename>
|
|
is a passive unit (i.e. pulled
|
|
in by the provider of the
|
|
functionality, rather than the
|
|
consumer) that usually does
|
|
not delay execution
|
|
much. Usually,
|
|
<filename>network.target</filename>
|
|
is part of the boot of most
|
|
systems, while
|
|
<filename>network-online.target</filename>
|
|
is not, except when at least
|
|
one unit requires it. Also see

<title>Special Passive System Units </title>
|
|
|
|
<para>A number of special system targets are defined
|
|
that can be used to properly order boot-up of optional
|
|
services. These targets are generally not part of the
|
|
initial boot transaction, unless they are explicitly
|
|
pulled in by one of the implementing services. Note
|
|
specifically, that these <emphasis>passive</emphasis>
|
|
target units are generally not pulled in by the
|
|
consumer of a service, but by the provider of the
|
|
service. This means: a consuming service should order
|
|
itself after these targets (as appropriate), but not
|
|
pull it in. A providing service should order itself
|
|
before these targets (as appropriate) and pull it in
|
|
(via a <varname>Wants=</varname> type
|
|
dependency).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that these passive units cannot be started
|
|
manually, i.e. <literal>systemctl start
|
|
time-sync.target</literal> will fail with an
|
|
error. They can only be pulled in by dependency. This
|
|
is enforced since they exist for ordering purposes
|
|
only and thus are not useful as only unit within a
|
|
transaction.</para>
