We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+. Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within systemd. The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT. The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Snapshot units are not configured via unit
|
|
configuration files. Nonetheless they are named
|
|
similar to filenames. A unit name whose name ends in
|
|
<filename>.snapshot</filename> refers to a dynamic
|
|
snapshot of the systemd runtime state.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Snapshots are not configured on disk but created
|
|
dynamically via <command>systemctl snapshot</command>
|
|
(see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for details) or an equivalent command. When created,
|
|
they will automatically get dependencies on the
|
|
currently activated units. They act as saved
|
|
runtime state of the systemd manager. Later on, the
|
|
user may choose to return to the saved state via
|
|
<command>systemctl isolate</command>. They are
|
|
useful to roll back to a defined state after
|
|
temporarily starting/stopping services or
|
|
similar.</para>
