Title:
  systemctl is-active on aliased names returns unknown

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  There is a symlink in /lib/systemd/system from udev.service to
  systemd-udevd.service, however, running "systemctl is-active udev"
  returns "unknown" instead of "active" initially. This can be solved by
  running "systemctl status udev" once, but for monitoring the service
  it would be nicer if the "is-active" would be working out of the box.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:        15.04

  $ apt-cache policy udev
  udev:
