It runs as PID 1 to start the operating system and also provides a logging daemon, tracks users and containers/VMs, and manages mounts. The document provides examples of commands to list, start, stop, enable, disable, and view status of services, as well as commands to view and manage logs, introspect units, restart the daemon, and power off or reboot the system or containers.
