What does Active: inactive (dead) mean when querying systemctl?

For example:

systemctl status iscsi.service
● iscsi.service - Login and scanning of iSCSI devices
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/iscsi.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)

Does it mean it's misconfigured, not working, not started, or some other problem?
