x SuSE Linux 13.1-RELEASE x x SuSE Linux 13.1-RELEASEx SYSTEMD-RUN(1) systemd-run SYSTEMD-RUN(1) NAME systemd-run - Run programs in transient scope or service units SYNOPSIS systemd-run [OPTIONS...] COMMAND [ARGS...] DESCRIPTION systemd-run may be used to create and start a transient .service or a .scope unit and run the specified COMMAND in it. If a command is run as transient service unit, it will be started and managed by the service manager like any other service, and thus show up in the output of systemctl list-units like any other unit. It will run in a clean and detached execution environment. systemd-run will start the service asynchronously in the background and immediately return. If a command is run as transient scope unit, it will be started directly by systemd-run and thus inherit the execution environment of the caller. It is however managed by the service manager similar to normal services, and will also show up in the output of systemctl list-units. Execution in this case is synchronous, and execution will return only when the command finishes. OPTIONS The following options are understood: --scope Create a transient .scope unit instead of the default transient .service unit. --unit= Use this unit name instead of an automatically generated one. --description= Provide description for the service or scope unit. If not specified, the command itself will be used as a description. See Description= in systemd.unit(5). --slice= Make the new .service or .scope unit part of the specified slice, instead of the system.slice. --remain-after-exit After the service or scope process has terminated, keep the service around until it is explicitly stopped. This is useful to collect runtime information about the service after it finished running. Also see RemainAfterExit= in systemd.service(5). --send-sighup When terminating the scope or service unit, send a SIGHUP immediately after SIGTERM. This is useful to indicate to shells and shell-like processes that the connection has been severed. Also see SendSIGHUP= in systemd.kill(5). --service-type= Sets the service type. Also see Type= in systemd.service(5). This option has no effect in conjunction with --scope. Defaults to simple. --uid=, --gid= Runs the service process under the UNIX user and group. Also see User= and Group= in systemd.exec(5). This option has no effect in conjunction with --scope. --nice= Runs the service process with the specified nice level. Also see Nice= in systemd.exec(5). This option has no effect in conjunction with --scope. --setenv= Runs the service process with the specified environment variables set. Also see Environment= in systemd.exec(5). This option has no effect in conjunction with --scope. --user Talk to the service manager of the calling user, rather than the service manager of the system. --system Talk to the service manager of the system. This is the implied default. -H, --host= Execute the operation remotely. Specify a hostname, or username and hostname separated by "@", to connect to. This will use SSH to talk to the remote machine manager instance. -M, --machine= Execute operation on a local container. Specify a container name to connect to. -h, --help Print a short help text and exit. --version Print a short version string and exit. All command-line arguments after the first non-option argument become part of the commandline of the launched process. If a command is run as service unit, its first argument needs to be an absolute binary path. EXIT STATUS On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise. EXAMPLE The following command will log the environment variables provided by systemd to services: # systemd-run env Running as unit run-19945.service. # journalctl -u run-19945.service Sep 08 07:37:21 bupkis systemd[1]: Starting /usr/bin/env...
