systemd-journal-flush.service will tell journald that /var is now available+writable and that it can now flush all data from /run to /var. If you mask that then of course nothing will be written to /var, because things are kept in /run for good. > According to man journald, it shouldn't be necessary to send the SIGUSR1 as > systemd-journal-flush.service does. It was my expectation that systemd > would eventually carry journal to /var/. The man page is actually incorrect here. We changed that a while back from the implicit flush to an explicit flush to get rid of some races.
