| # What settings are currently available for transient units? |
| |
| Our intention is to make all settings that are available as unit file settings |
| also available for transient units, through the D-Bus API. At the moment, some |
| unit types (device, swap, target) are not supported at all via unit types, |
| but most others are pretty well supported, with some notable omissions. |
| |
| The lists below contain all settings currently available in unit files. The |
| ones currently available in transient units are prefixed with `✓`. |
| |
