[SOLVED] Does systemctl daemon-reload need to be executed using root/sudo?

Issue

Does systemctl daemon-reload need to be executed using root/sudo? and does the same command apply to both Centos 7 and Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS?


Solution

$ systemctl daemon-reload

Yeah, I'd say so. Unless you are doing it in a container with root privileges, pretty sure you need to have root permissions for anything related to systemd services.
