32 | <title>Description</title> | |
33 | ||
34 | <para><filename>systemd-rc-local-generator</filename> is a generator that checks whether | |
c2ee27a5 ZJS |
35 | <filename>&RC_LOCAL_PATH;</filename> exists and is executable, and if it is pulls the |
36 | <filename>rc-local.service</filename> unit into the boot process. This unit is responsible for running | |
37 | this script during late boot. Note that the script will be run with slightly different semantics than the | |
38 | original System V version, which was run "last" in the boot process, which is a concept that does not | |
39 | translate to systemd. The script is run after <filename>network.target</filename>, but in parallel with | |
40 | most other regular system services.</para> | |
41 | ||
42 | <para>Support for <filename>&RC_LOCAL_PATH;</filename> is provided for compatibility with specific System | |
43 | V systems only. However, it is strongly recommended to avoid making use of this script today, and instead | |
44 | provide proper unit files with appropriate dependencies for any scripts to run during the boot process. | |
45 | Note that the path to the script is set a compile time and varies between distributions.</para> | |
