|
<para>The name of the slice unit to place the unit
|
|
|
|
in. Defaults to <filename>system.slice</filename> for all
|
|
|
|
unit types, except for slice units themselves. This may be
|
|
|
|
used to arrange systemd units in a hierarchy of slices each
|
|
|
|
of which might have resource settings applied.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>For units of type slice the only accepted value for
|
|
|
|
this setting is the parent slice. Since the name of a slice
|
|
|
|
unit implies the parent slice it is hence redundant to ever
|
|
|
|
set this parameter directly for slice units.</para>
