This is showing that the only process with systemd in its name is the grep command itself; you could pass anything to grep and it will be found in the process list, eg; $ ps auxf | grep blah adam 52359 0.0 0.0 7708 940 pts/3 S+ 09:55 0:00 \_ grep --colour=auto blah So, there's no systemd process running on this system.
