It isn't documented, because it's use is not encouraged for most use
cases. The main focus is to be able to support compatibility wrappers
for sysv init scripts, fstab, cryptab, means: read a legacy file and
create a systemd unit from it. It is not a hotplug hook.

The generator runs _before_ systemd starts, if you need to reload
systemd's config during bootup, generators are absolutely not what you
are looking for.

I did not look at the details, maybe you want an instantiated foo@.service?

I fear, that you are trying to force the systemd service engine into a
storage management daemon, which is not what we want. If instantiated
services don't help, a more general/higher level description of the
problem might be helpful for us to understand the problem.
