systemd

1. 背景

首先，我们先看一下/etc/init.d/README内容:

You are looking for the traditional init scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d,
and they are gone?

Here's an explanation on what's going on:

You are running a systemd-based OS where traditional init scripts have
been replaced by native systemd services files. Service files provide
very similar functionality to init scripts. To make use of service
files simply invoke "systemctl", which will output a list of all
currently running services (and other units). Use "systemctl
list-unit-files" to get a listing of all known unit files, including
stopped, disabled and masked ones. Use "systemctl start
foobar.service" and "systemctl stop foobar.service" to start or stop a
service, respectively. For further details, please refer to
systemctl(1).

Note that traditional init scripts continue to function on a systemd
system. An init script /etc/rc.d/init.d/foobar is implicitly mapped
into a service unit foobar.service during system initialization.

根据上面的解释，目前RED HAT 7, Centos 7等都采用systemd方式来作为系统初始化工具.

2. 为何替换使用systemd

• systemd通过并行启动服务来加速系统启动时间；
• systemd使用Cgroup可以更好的管理程序，同时也能控制执行环境；
• systemd通过结合journald达到更好的日志机制，这种日志方式在Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7中引入；
• systemd可以处理系统配置动态调整；
