- <para>When system shutdown or a sleep state is requested,
- ignore inhibitor locks. Applications can establish inhibitor
- locks to avoid that certain important operations (such as CD
- burning or suchlike) are interrupted by system shutdown or a
- sleep state. Any user may take these locks and privileged
- users may override these locks. If any locks are taken,
- shutdown and sleep state requests will normally fail
- (regardless of whether privileged or not) and a list of active locks
- is printed. However, if <option>--ignore-inhibitors</option>
- is specified, the locks are ignored and not printed, and the
- operation attempted anyway, possibly requiring additional
- privileges.</para>
