sys-service-runner

Description

Runs a collected list of systemd services at the end of a play. This is useful for services where flush/restart is suppressed during setup, but should be started once everything they depend on is ready.

How it works

• Consumes system_service_run_list (created by sys-service when system_service_force_flush_final=true).

• Enables and starts/restarts each service.

• Shows diagnostics (systemctl status, journalctl -xeu) on failure.

Variables

• system_service_run_list (list): list of systemd unit names to run

• sys_service_runner_state (string): desired state (started, restarted, …)
