RHBA-2018:3245 - systemd bug fix and enhancement update
Synopsis
systemd bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory None
Topic
An update for systemd is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Description
The systemd packages contain systemd, a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with the SysV and LSB init scripts. It provides aggressive parallelism capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, and keeps track of processes using Linux cgroups. In addition, it supports snapshotting and restoring of the system state, maintains mount and automount points, and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can also work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.
For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 Release Notes linked from the References section.
Users of systemd are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
