<title>Description</title>
<para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
<literal>.scope</literal> encodes information about a unit created
by systemd to encapsulate processes not launched by systemd
itself. This management is performed by creating a node in the
control group tree. Processes are moved into the scope by means
of the D-Bus API.
<command>systemd-run <option>--scope</option></command> can be
used to easily launch a command in a new scope unit.</para>
<para>Scope units are not configured via unit configuration files,
but are only created programmatically using the bus interfaces of
systemd. They are named similar to filenames. A unit whose name
ends in <literal>.scope</literal> refers to a scope unit. Scopes
units manage a set of system processes. Unlike service units scope
units manage externally created processes, and do not fork off
processes on its own.</para>
<para>See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for the common options of all unit configuration
files. The common configuration items are configured
in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The
scope specific configuration options are configured in
the [Scope] section. Currently, only generic cgroup settings
as described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.cgroup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> are allowed.
