It is based a concept: dependence, it's a more advance idea than SysV,
for example: NFS relies on network, if network is not started, and if
you start NFS, it will automatic start network, if network starts failure,
NFS start is aborted. of course it has SysV capability, you can start
and stop individual daemon or subsystem : for example:
$/etc/rc.d/nfs stop
$/etc/rc.d/nfs start
