<title>Description</title>
<para><emphasis>Note: this component is deprecated and scheduled for removal. Please replace remaining
SysV init scripts with native unit files.</emphasis></para>
<para><filename>systemd-sysv-generator</filename> is a generator that creates wrapper .service units for
<ulink url="https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/sysvinit">System V init</ulink> scripts in
<filename>/etc/init.d/*</filename> at boot and when configuration of the system manager is reloaded. This
allows <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
support them similarly to native units.</para>
<para><ulink
url="http://refspecs.linuxbase.org/LSB_3.1.1/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html">LSB
headers</ulink> in SysV init scripts are interpreted, and the ordering specified in the header is turned
into dependencies between the generated unit and other units. The LSB facilities
<literal>$remote_fs</literal>, <literal>$network</literal>, <literal>$named</literal>,
<literal>$portmap</literal>, <literal>$time</literal> are supported and will be turned into dependencies
on specific native systemd targets. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
more details.</para>
<para>Note that compatibility is quite comprehensive but not 100%, for more details see <ulink
url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Incompatibilities">Incompatibilities with
SysV</ulink>.</para>
<para>SysV runlevels have corresponding systemd targets
(<filename>runlevel<replaceable>X</replaceable>.target</filename>). The wrapper unit that is generated
will be wanted by those targets which correspond to runlevels for which the script is enabled.</para>
<para><command>systemd</command> does not support SysV scripts as part of early boot, so all wrapper
units are ordered after <filename>basic.target</filename>.</para>
<para><filename>systemd-sysv-generator</filename> implements
