boolean

added in 2.8

Run daemon_reexec command before doing any other operations, the systemd manager will serialize the manager state.

aliases: daemon-reexec

boolean

Run daemon-reload before doing any other operations, to make sure systemd has read any changes.

When set to yes, runs daemon-reload even if the module does not start or stop anything.

aliases: daemon-reload

boolean

Whether the service should start on boot. At least one of state and enabled are required.

boolean

added in 2.6

Whether to override existing symlinks.

boolean

Whether the unit should be masked or not, a masked unit is impossible to start.

-

Name of the service. This parameter takes the name of exactly one service to work with.

When using in a chroot environment you always need to specify the full name i.e. (crond.service).

aliases: service, unit

boolean

Do not synchronously wait for the requested operation to finish. Enqueued job will continue without Ansible blocking on its completion.

-

added in 2.7

run systemctl within a given service manager scope, either as the default system scope (system), the current user's scope (user), or the scope of all users (global).

For systemd to work with 'user', the executing user must have its own instance of dbus started (systemd requirement). The user dbus process is normally started during normal login, but not during the run of Ansible tasks. Otherwise you will probably get a 'Failed to connect to bus: no such file or directory' error.

-

started/stopped are idempotent actions that will not run commands unless necessary. restarted will always bounce the service. reloaded will always reload.

boolean

(deprecated) run ``systemctl`` talking to the service manager of the calling user, rather than the service manager of the system.

This option is deprecated and will eventually be removed in 2.11. The ``scope`` option should be used instead.

complex

A dictionary with the key=value pairs returned from `systemctl show`
