- <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>
