systemd-run:tldr:cfa8d
This command is a combination of two elements: "sudo" and "systemd-run".
-
"sudo" is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to grant temporary administrative privileges to users. By running a command with "sudo" prefix, the user is prompted to enter their password, and if authenticated, the command executes with elevated privileges.
-
"systemd-run" is a utility provided by the systemd init system used in some Linux distributions. It launches and manages transient unit files within the systemd ecosystem.
The command itself consists of the following elements:
- "sudo" grants administrative privileges.
- "systemd-run" initiates a transient unit file within the systemd environment.
- "${command}" represents the actual command or executable that needs to be run within the systemd ecosystem. This can be any executable or script file.
- "${argument1 argument2 ---}" signifies the arguments to be passed to the specified command. These arguments can be optional depending on the specific requirements of the command being run.
Overall, this command uses "sudo" to acquire administrative privileges and then utilizes "systemd-run" to execute a specified command within the systemd environment, passing any required arguments.
