19 These configuration files control default parameters for home
20 areas/user accounts created and managed by systemd-homed.service(8).

23 The default configuration is defined during compilation, so a
24 configuration file is only needed when it is necessary to deviate from
25 those defaults. By default, the configuration file in /etc/systemd/
26 contains commented out entries showing the defaults as a guide to the
27 administrator. This file can be edited to create local overrides.
28 When packages need to customize the configuration, they can install
30 configuration snippets in /usr/lib/systemd/*.conf.d/ or
31 /usr/local/lib/systemd/*.conf.d/. The main configuration file is read
32 before any of the configuration directories, and has the lowest
33 precedence; entries in a file in any configuration directory override
34 entries in the single configuration file. Files in the *.conf.d/
35 configuration subdirectories are sorted by their filename in
36 lexicographic order, regardless of in which of the subdirectories they
37 reside. When multiple files specify the same option, for options which
38 accept just a single value, the entry in the file with the
39 lexicographically latest name takes precedence. For options which
40 accept a list of values, entries are collected as they occur in files
41 sorted lexicographically.
42 Files in /etc/ are reserved for the local administrator, who may use
44 this logic to override the configuration files installed by vendor
45 packages. It is recommended to prefix all filenames in those
46 subdirectories with a two-digit number and a dash, to simplify the
47 ordering of the files.
48 To disable a configuration file supplied by the vendor, the recommended
50 way is to place a symlink to /dev/null in the configuration directory
51 in /etc/, with the same filename as the vendor configuration file.

54 The following options are available in the [Home] section:
55 DefaultStorage=
57 The default storage to use for home areas. Takes one of "luks",
58 "fscrypt", "directory", "subvolume", "cifs". For details about
59 these options, see homectl(1). If not configured or assigned the
60 empty string, the default storage is automatically determined: if
61 not running in a container environment and /home/ is not itself
62 encrypted, defaults to "luks". Otherwise defaults to "subvolume" if
63 /home/ is on a btrfs file system, and "directory" otherwise. Note
64 that the storage selected on the homectl command line always takes
65 precedence.
66 DefaultFileSystemType=
68 When using "luks" as storage (see above), selects the default file
69 system to use inside the user's LUKS volume. Takes one of "ext4",
70 "xfs" or "btrfs". If not specified defaults to "ext4". This setting
71 has no effect if a different storage mechanism is used. The file
72 system type selected on the homectl command line always takes
73 precedence.
