Delete

Delete a service unit file from a target host. The service is stopped and disabled if running, the unit file is removed from /etc/systemd/system/, and systemctl daemon-reload is run:

$ osapi client node service delete --target web-01 \
    --name myapp.service

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  NAME             CHANGED
  myapp.service    true

If the unit file does not exist, changed: false is returned:

$ osapi client node service delete --target web-01 \
    --name myapp.service

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  NAME             CHANGED
  myapp.service    false

Broadcast to all hosts:

$ osapi client node service delete --target _all \
    --name myapp.service

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  HOSTNAME  NAME             CHANGED
  web-01    myapp.service    true
  web-02    myapp.service    true
