+                <title>Description</title>
+
+                <para><filename>systemd-halt.service</filename> is a
+                system service that is pulled in by
+                <filename>halt.target</filename> and is responsible
+                for the actual system halt. Similar,
+                <filename>systemd-poweroff.service</filename> is
+                pulled in by <filename>poweroff.target</filename>,
+                <filename>systemd-reboot.service</filename> by
+                <filename>reboot.target</filename> and
+                <filename>systemd-kexec.service</filename> by
+                <filename>kexec.target</filename> to execute the
+                respective actions.</para>
+
+                <para>When these services are run they ensure that PID
+                1 is replaced by the
+                <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-shutdown</filename>
+                tool which is then responsible for the actual
+                shutdown. Before shutting down this binary will try to
+                unmount all remaining file systems, disable all
+                remaining swap devices, detach all remaining storage
+                devices and kill all remaining processes.</para>
+
+                <para>Immediately before executing the actual system
+                halt/poweroff/reboot/kexec
+                <filename>system-shutdown</filename> will run all
+                executables in
+                <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-shutdown/</filename>
+                and pass one arguments to them: either
+                "<literal>halt</literal>",
+                "<literal>poweroff</literal>",
+                "<literal>reboot</literal>" or
+                "<literal>kexec</literal>", depending on the chosen
+                action. All executables in this directory are executed
+                in parallel, and execution of the action is not
+                continued before all executables finished.</para>
+
+                <para>Note that
+                <filename>systemd-halt.service</filename> (and the
+                related units) should never be executed
+                directly. Instead, trigger system shutdown with a
+                command such as "<literal>systemctl halt</literal>" or
+                suchlike.</para>
