That's certainly an option. One that I was prepared to resort to. But curiosity has the best of me

I would like to know why the SysV generator didn't do its job.
And I wasn't able to find any "generated" unit files from those Dell OpenManage SysV scripts either.
The generators all run automatically when systemd reloads config.
The transient unit files created are in /var/run ...
Thanks. I located a few generated ones in /var/run/systemd/generator.late/ But not one for lsi_mrdsnmpagent
Best way to see this is using systemctl (status|cat|show) <servicename>

I expect if you do this for your failing service you'll get a better understanding of what's going on.
~]# systemctl status lsi_mrdsnmp.service ● lsi_mrdsnmp.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead)

Can you pastebin the init script by any chance? I wonder if it's actually a properly written init script or if it's bad enough that the generator fails to parse it ...
