.SH "NAME"
systemd.scope \- Scope unit configuration
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fIscope\fR\&.scope
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
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
"\&.scope"
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\&.
.PP
The main purpose of scope units is grouping worker processes of a system service for organization and for managing resources\&.
.PP
\fBsystemd\-run \fR\fB\fB\-\-scope\fR\fR
may be used to easily launch a command in a new scope unit from the command line\&.
.PP
See the
\m[blue]\fBNew Control Group Interfaces\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2
for an introduction on how to make use of scope units from programs\&.
.SH "AUTOMATIC DEPENDENCIES"
.SS "Implicit Dependencies"
.PP
Implicit dependencies may be added as result of resource control parameters as documented in
\fBsystemd.resource-control\fR(5)\&.
.SS "Default Dependencies"
.PP
The following dependencies are added unless
\fIDefaultDependencies=no\fR
is set:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
Scope units will automatically have dependencies of type
\fIConflicts=\fR
and
\fIBefore=\fR
on
shutdown\&.target\&. These ensure that scope units are removed prior to system shutdown\&. Only scope units involved with early boot or late system shutdown should disable
\fIDefaultDependencies=\fR
option\&.
