Overview

We create a simple systemd Type=oneshot unit file that delegates the work of starting and stopping the instance to the System V wrappers shipped with EAP installation bundle.

systemd File Locations

We adapted the installation procedure after an ActiveMQ installation procedure that recommended placing files in /usr/lib/systemd/scripts and /usr/lib/systemd/system. However, a better location seems to be /etc/systemd/... More research is needed, the results will go here systemd Concepts#Unit_File_Location.
