NAME¶
systemd-machine-id-commit - Commit transient machine ID to /etc/machine-id
SYNOPSIS¶
systemd-machine-id-commit
DESCRIPTION¶
systemd-machine-id-commit may be used to write on disk any transient machine ID mounted as a temporary file system in /etc/machine-id at boot time. See machine-id(5) for more information about this file.
This tool will execute no operation if /etc/machine-id doesn't contain any valid machine ID, isn't mounted as an independent temporary file system, of /etc is read-only. If those conditions are met, it will then write current machine ID to disk and unmount the transient /etc/machine-id file in a race-free manner to ensure that this file is always valid for other processes.
Note that the traditional way to initialize the machine ID in /etc/machine-id is to use systemd-machine-id-setup by system installer tools. You can also use systemd-firstboot(1) to initialize the machine ID on mounted (but not booted) system images.
OPTIONS¶
The following options are understood:
--root=root
-h, --help
--version
EXIT STATUS¶
On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
