From the man page: By default the journal stores log data in /run/log/journal/. Since /run/ is volatile log data is lost at reboot. To make the data persistent it is sufficient to create /var/log/journal/ where systemd-journald will then store the data. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
