One option is to simply copy some of the files in /var/log/journal to a different location. You can then read them with 'journalctl -D'. If you want to be more granular and only select specific log entries, you can export and write to a journal file with: journalctl -o export ... | /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-journal-remote -o /tmp/foo.journal - This has the advantage that you can apply any journalctl filter where the dots are, e.g. '-b'.
