processes will be killed forcibly and all file systems are unmounted or remounted read-only. This is hence a
drastic but relatively safe option to request an immediate reboot. If <option>--force</option> is specified
twice for these operations (with the exception of <command>kexec</command>), they will be executed
- immediately, without terminating any processes or unmounting any file systems. Warning: specifying
- <option>--force</option> twice with any of these operations might result in data loss. Note that when
- <option>--force</option> is specified twice the selected operation is executed by
- <command>systemctl</command> itself, and the system manager is not contacted. This means the command should
- succeed even when the system manager has crashed.</para>
