You can specify a slice using the Slice= property under [Service] and IIRC templated services also implicitly get a slice shared by all instantiations of that template. Regarding the question from another Mail if After=/Before= would cause all units to be activated at the same time, no. The ordering dependencies don't cause each other to start. They only have an effect if both units are queued to start already which is why you explicitly have to add a Require= or Wants= dependency if you want that. Cheers, Nils
