+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
+ <filename>.target</filename> encodes information about
+ a target unit of systemd, which is used for grouping
+ units and as well-known synchronization points during
+ start-up.</para>
+
+ <para>This unit type has no specific options. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for the common options of all unit configuration
+ files. The common configuration items are configured
+ in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. A
+ seperate [Target] section does not exist, since no
+ target-specific options may be configured.</para>
+
+ <para>Target units do not offer any additional
+ functionality on top of the generic functionality
+ provided by units. They exist merely to group units via dependencies
+ (useful as boot targets), and to establish
+ standardized names for synchronization points used in
+ dependencies between units. Among other things target
+ units are a more flexible replacement for SysV
+ runlevels in the classic SysV init system. (And in
+ fact for compatibility reasons there exist special
+ target units such as
+ <filename>runlevel3.target</filename> that are used by
+ the SysV runlevel compatibility code in systemd. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for details).</para>
