graphical.target
On older Linux distributions, what command was used to manage runlevels and system daemons.
init
What daemon did earlier versions of Linux used runlevels instead of boot targets to set the system state.
init daemon
What run-level command will have the same affect of switching the system to multi-user mode with a graphical user as * systemctl isolate graphical.target*
interface:systemctl isolate runlevel 5.target
What systemd runlevel-like name (similar to initd) is equivalent to system runlevel2, runlevel3.target, runlevel4.target
multi-user.target
What target configures the system to run in multi-user mode with a text-based user interface. This target is commonly used as the default mode for server systems.
multi-user.target
What systemd runlevel-like name (similar to initd) is equivalent to system poweroff.target.
runlevel0.target
What systemd runlevel-like name (similar to initd) is equivalent to system rescue.target.
runlevel1.target.
What command is used to manage boot targets.
systemctl
What command displays the current boot target.
systemctl get-default

What command sets the default boot target.
systemctl set-default boot_target
