SYSTEMD-BA...K.SERVICE(8) systemd-battery-checkSYSTEMD-BA...K.SERVICE(8)

NAME         top

       systemd-battery-check.service, systemd-battery-check - Check
       battery level whether there's enough charge, and power off if not

SYNOPSIS         top

       systemd-battery-check.service

       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-battery-check [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION         top

       This service checks the presence of an external power supply and
       the battery level during the early boot stage to determine
       whether there is sufficient power to carry on with the booting
       process.

       systemd-battery-check returns success if the device is connected
       to an AC power source or if the battery charge is greater than
       5%. It returns failure otherwise.

OPTIONS         top

       The following options are understood by systemd-battery-check:

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

       --version
           Print a short version string and exit.

EXIT STATUS         top

       On success (running on AC power or battery capacity greater than
       5%), 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.

KERNEL COMMAND LINE         top

       The following variables are understood:

       systemd.battery_check=BOOL
           Takes a boolean. If specified with false,
           systemd-battery-check command will return immediately with
           exit status 0 without checking battery capacity and AC power
           existence, and the service systemd-battery-check.service will
           succeed. This may be useful when the command wrongly detects
           and reports battery capacity percentage or AC power
           existence, or when you want to boot the system forcibly.

           Added in version 254.
