- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><command>systemd-inhibit</command> may be used
- to execute a program with a shutdown, sleep or idle
- inhibitor lock taken. The lock will be acquired before
- the specified command line is executed and released
- afterwards.</para>
-
- <para>Inhibitor locks may be used to block or delay
- system sleep and shutdown requests from the user, as well
- as automatic idle handling of the OS. This is useful
- to avoid system suspends while an optical disc is
- being recorded, or similar operations that should not
- be interrupted.</para>

- limit, and only privileged users may
- override it. If
- <literal>delay</literal> is used, the
- lock can only delay the requested
- operations for a limited time. If the
- time elapses the lock is ignored and
- the operation executed. The time limit
- may be specified in
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-logind.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Note
