    <title>Description</title>

    <para><filename>systemd-random-seed.service</filename> is a
    service that restores the random seed of the system at early boot
    and saves it at shutdown. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>random</refentrytitle><manvolnum>4</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for details. Saving/restoring the random seed across boots
    increases the amount of available entropy early at boot. On disk
    the random seed is stored in
    <filename>/var/lib/systemd/random-seed</filename>.</para>
