NAutoVTs=
Takes a positive

- services on (if they are otherwise
- unused). These services are
- instantiated from a template of
+ integer. Configures how many virtual

autovt@.service

+ for example, autovt@tty4.service. By
+ default,
autovt@.service
is linked to
- getty@.service,
- i.e. login prompts are started
+ getty@.service.
+ In other words, login prompts are started
dynamically as the user switches to
- unused virtual terminals, and this
- parameter hence controls how many
- gettys are available on the virtual
- terminals. Defaults to 6. When set to
+ unused virtual terminals. Hence, this
+ parameter controls how many login
+ gettys are
+ available on the VTs. If a VT is
+ already used by some other subsystem
+ (for example, a graphical login), this
+ kind of activation will not be
+ attempted. Note that the VT configured
+ in ReserveVT= is
+ always subject to this kind of
+ activation, even if it is not one of
+ the VTs configured with the
+ NAutoVTs=
+ directive. Defaults to 6. When set to
0, automatic spawning of
autovt services is
disabled.
+
+ ReserveVT=
+
+ Takes a positive
+ integer. Identifies one
+ virtual terminal that shall
+ unconditionally be reserved for
+ autovt@.service
+ activation (see above). The VT
+ selected with this option will be
+ marked busy unconditionally, so that no
+ other subsystem will allocate it. This
+ functionality is useful to ensure that,
+ regardless of how many VTs are allocated
+ by other subsystems, one login
+ getty is always
+ available. Defaults to 6 (in other
+ words, there will always be a
+ getty available on
+ Alt-F6.). When set to 0, VT
+ reservation is
+ disabled.

- Note that KillUserProcesses=1
- is a weaker version of

- pam_systemd8. The
- latter kills processes of a session as soon as it
- ends, the former kills processes as soon as the last
- session of the user ends.

+ RuntimeDirectorySize=
+
+ Sets the size limit on
+ the
+ $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
+ runtime directory for each user who
+ logs in. Takes a size in bytes,
+ optionally suffixed with the usual K, G,
+ M, and T suffixes, to the base 1024
+ (IEC). Alternatively, a numerical
+ percentage suffixed by %
+ may be specified, which sets the size
+ limit relative to the amount of
+ physical RAM. Defaults to 10%. Note
+ that this size is a safety limit
+ only. As each runtime directory is a
+ tmpfs file system, it will only consume
+ as much memory as is needed.

+
+
+
+ RemoveIPC=
+
+ Controls whether
+ System V and POSIX IPC objects
+ belonging to the user shall be removed
+ when the user fully logs out. Takes a
+ boolean argument. If enabled, the user
+ may not consume IPC resources after
+ the last of his sessions
+ terminated. This covers System V
+ semaphores, shared memory and message
+ queues, as well as POSIX shared memory
+ and message queues. Note that IPC
+ objects of the root user are excluded
+ from the effect of this
+ setting. Defaults to
+ yes.
