I have one systemd service which runs with systemctl --user start test_unit@random_arguments. How could I use journalctl to filter all logs of test_unit? If it supports "follow mode", that's even better.

          If this is a user unit, use the --user-unit option:



          journalctl -f --user-unit=test_unit@random_arguments


          Otherwise, filter the unit with _SYSTEMD_UNIT:



          sudo journalctl -f _SYSTEMD_UNIT=test_unit@random_arguments
