SYSTEMD-...ENERATOR(8) systemd-rc-local-generator SYSTEMD-...ENERATOR(8)
systemd-rc-local-generator, rc-local.service - Compatibility
generator and service to start /etc/rc.local during boot
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-rc-local-generator
rc-local.service
systemd-rc-local-generator is a generator that checks whether
/etc/rc.local exists and is executable, and if it is, pulls the
rc-local.service unit into the boot process. This unit is
responsible for running this script during late boot. The script
is run after network.target, but in parallel with most other
regular system services.
Note that rc-local.service runs with slightly different semantics
than the original System V version, which was executed "last" in
the boot process, which is a concept that does not translate to
systemd.
Also note that rc-local.service is ordered after network.target,
which does not mean that the network is functional, see
systemd.special(7). If the script requires a configured network
connection, it may be desirable to pull in and order it after
network-online.target with a drop-in:
# /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service.d/network.conf
[Unit]
Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target
Support for /etc/rc.local is provided for compatibility with
specific System V systems only. However, it is strongly
recommended to avoid making use of this script today, and instead
provide proper unit files with appropriate dependencies for any
scripts to run during the boot process. Note that the path to the
script is set at compile time and varies between distributions.
systemd-rc-local-generator implements systemd.generator(7).
