NAME

       systemd-sysusers, systemd-sysusers.service - Allocate system users and groups

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-sysusers [OPTIONS...] [CONFIGFILE...]

       systemd-sysusers.service

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-sysusers creates system users and groups, based on the file format and location
       specified in sysusers.d(5).

       If invoked with no arguments, it applies all directives from all files found. If one or
       more filenames are passed on the command line, only the directives in these files are
       applied. If only the basename of a file is specified, all directories as specified in
       sysusers.d(5) are searched for a matching file. If the string - is specified as filename,
       entries from the standard input of the process are read.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       --root=root
           Takes a directory path as an argument. All paths will be prefixed with the given
           alternate root path, including config search paths.

       -h, --help
           Print a short help text and exit.

       --version
           Print a short version string and exit.

EXIT STATUS

       On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
