https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#issues-systemd The Debian upgrade from wheezy to jessie will by default migrate your init system from the SysV to systemd. Depending on your system and setup, you may need to do some manual changes. We have detailed known issues in Section 5.6, “Upgrading installs the new default init system for Jessie”. https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#systemd-upgrade-default-init-system Jessie ships with systemd-sysv as default init system. This package is installed automatically on upgrades. and so on. I am of course referring to the *default* behavior here, not to people who went out of their way to retain sysvinit.
