Ansible systemd_service

This Ansible role that installs and configures systemd unit files and all of its corresponding services. This role requires the openstack-ansible-plugins repository to be available on your local system. The Ansible galaxy resolver will not retrieve this role for you. To get this role in place clone the plugins repository before installing this role.

# git clone https://github.com/openstack/openstack-ansible-plugins /etc/ansible/roles/plugins

You can also use the ansible-galaxy command on the ansible-role-requirements.yml file.

# ansible-galaxy install -r ansible-role-requirements.yml
