NAME
       systemd-mute-console, systemd-mute-console@.service, systemd-mute-console.socket - Temporarily mute
       kernel log output and service manager status output to the system console

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-mute-console [OPTIONS...]

       systemd-mute-console@.service

       systemd-mute-console.socket

DESCRIPTION
       The systemd-mute-console tool and service may be used to temporarily mute the log output of the
       kernel as well as the status output of the service manager to the system console. It may be used by
       tools running on the console to ensure their terminal output is not interrupted by unrelated
       messages.

       The tool can be invoked directly in which case it will mute the two outputs and then issue an
       sd_notify(3) "READY=1" notification once that is completed. On SIGINT or SIGTERM output is unmuted
       again. Alternatively it can be invoked via Varlink IPC.

OPTIONS
       The following options are understood:

       --kernel=bool, --pid1=bool
	   Individually controls which output to mute. If true is specified the respective output is muted,
	   if false the output is left as is. Defaults to true.

	   Added in version 259.

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

       --version
	   Print a short version string and exit.
