This option was added with util-linux v2.25 in 2014. If you're using an older version or the Busybox `logger` instead, well, it won't have that. The alternative is to write your own C tool that uses libsystemd and calls sd_journal_send<https://manpages.debian.org/testing/libsystemd-dev/sd_journal_send.3.en.html>() with the correct fields (libsystemd is definitely going to be present), or a Python tool that uses systemd.journal.send(). (Or maybe call libsystemd through python ctypes or whatever other FFI mechanism is available.)

Are you aware of other tools from bash which can be used?

In C, specify the field when calling sd_journal_sendv(); in bash you can use `logger --journal`: (echo "OBJECT_SYSTEMD_UNIT=sshd.service"; echo "MESSAGE=Hello world!") | sudo logger --journal On Fri, Oct 22, 2021 at 11:43 AM DHAIY DHAIY <dh...@msn.com<mailto:dh...@msn.com>> wrote: Saying we have a systemd unit named "myservice". we can use journalctl -u myservice to inspect the logs generated by myservice.
