Name : systemd
Product : Fedora 17
Version : 44
Release : 20.fc17
URL : http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
Summary : A System and Service Manager
Description :
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization
capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,
offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using
Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can
work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This systemd update brings many bugfixes and several enhancements:
* support `modules-load=` boot parameter
* `systemctl reset-failed` now resets the start rate limit
* systemctl can filter by load state
* parse `BindsTo=`
* error reporting when stopping unknown units
* `PartOf=` dependencies
* enabling/disabling of instantiated units
* usability improvements for systemctl:
* `systemctl status /home`
* `systemctl status /dev/foobar`
* implied .service suffix
* new timeouts `TimeoutStartSec=`, `TimeoutStopSec=`
* understand `PARTUUID=`, `PARTLABEL=` in fstab
* new conditions `ConditionHost=`, `ConditionFileNotEmpty=`
* tmpfiles: globbing support with 'w' mode
* various fixes
