Overview
systemd-logind is a system service that manages user logins. It is responsible for:

- providing PolicyKit-based access for users to operations such as system shutdown or sleep
- implementing a shutdown/sleep inhibition logic for application
- handling power/sleep hardware keys
- multi-seat management
- session switch management
- device access management for users
- automatic spawning of text logins (gettys) on virtual console activation and user runtime directory management
How to Prevent the Computer to Go to Sleep when the Lid is Closed
Edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf.
Set the following:
... HandleLidSwitch=ignore HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore ... LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes ...
"LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes" must be set explicitly, so our "HandleLidSwitch=ignore" configuration is executed in any case, and it is not subjected to "inhibitor locks taken by the application".
