+ <para>Set the specified unit properties at runtime where
+ this is supported. This allows changing configuration
+ parameter properties such as resource management controls at
+ runtime. Not all properties may be changed at runtime, but
+ many resource management settings (primarily those in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.cgroup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
+ may. The changes are applied instantly, and stored on disk
+ for future boots, unless <option>--runtime</option> is
+ passed, in which case the settings only apply until the next
+ reboot. The syntax of the property assignment follows
+ closely the syntax of assignments in unit files.</para>

+ <para>Example: <command>systemctl set-property foobar.service CPUShares=777</command></para>
+
+ <para>Note that this command allows changing multiple
+ properties at the same time, which is preferable over
+ setting them individually. Like unit file configuration
+ settings, assigning the empty list to list parameters will
+ reset the list.</para>
