Binary package “systemd” in ubuntu-rtm 14.09
system and service manager
systemd is a replacement for sysvinit. It is dependency-based and
able to read the LSB init script headers in addition to parsing rcN.d
links as hints.
.
It also provides process supervision using cgroups and the ability to
not only depend on other init script being started, but also
availability of a given mount point or dbus service.
.
Installing the systemd package will not switch your init system unless you
boot with init=/bin/systemd or install systemd-sysv in addition.
