Description
- A unit configuration file whose name ends in
- .scope encodes information about a unit created
- by systemd to encapsulate processes launched not by systemd
- itself. This management is performed by creating a node in the
- control group tree. Processes are moved into the scope by means
- of the DBus API.
- systemd-run can be
- used to easily launch a command in a new scope unit.

- See
- systemd.unit5
- for the common options of all unit configuration
- files. The common configuration items are configured
- in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The
- scope specific configuration options are configured in
- the [Scope] section. Currently, only generic cgroup settings
- as described in
- systemd.cgroup7 are allowed.

+ 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.
+
+ The main purpose of scope units is grouping worker processes
+ of a system service for organization and for managing resources.
