2014-10-23journalctl: add new --flush command and make use of it in ↵Lennart Poettering
systemd-journal-flush.service This new command will ask the journal daemon to flush all log data stored in /run to /var, and wait for it to complete. This is useful, so that in case of Storage=persistent we can order systemd-tmpfiles-setup afterwards, to ensure any possibly newly created directory in /var/log gets proper access mode and owners.
2012-07-11journal: replace implicit flushing of journal by explicit oneLennart Poettering
The old automatism that the flushing of the journal from /run to /var was triggered by the appearance of /var/log/journal is broken if that directory is mounted from another host and hence always available to be useful as mount point. To avoid probelsm with this, introduce a new unit that is explicitly orderer after all mounte files systems and triggers the flushing.
