- Swap role includes: sys-systemctl → sys-service in all roles
- Rename variables everywhere: systemctl_* → system_service_* (incl. systemctl_id → system_service_id)
- Templates: ExecStart now uses {{ system_service_script_exec }}; add optional RuntimeMaxSec via SYS_SERVICE_DEFAULT_RUNTIME
- Move SYS_SERVICE defaults into roles/sys-service/defaults (remove SYS_SERVICE_ALL_ENABLED & SYS_SERVICE_DEFAULT_STATE from group_vars/07_services.yml)
- Tidy group_vars/all/08_timer.yml formatting
- Introduce roles/sys-daemon:
- default manager timeouts (timeouts.conf)
- optional purge of /etc/systemd/system.conf.d
- validation via systemd-analyze verify
- handlers for daemon-reload & daemon-reexec
- Refactor sys-timer to system_service_* variables (docs and templates updated)
- Move filter_plugins/filetype.py under sys-service
- Update meta/README to point to official systemd docs
- Touch many roles (backup/cleanup/health/repair/certs/nginx/csp/wireguard/ssd-hdd/keyboard/update-docker/alarm compose/email/telegram/etc.) to new naming
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Role path/name change: use `sys-service` instead of `sys-systemctl`
- All `systemctl_*` vars are now `system_service_*` (e.g., on_calendar, state, timer_enabled, script_exec, id)
- If you have custom templates, adopt RuntimeMaxSec and new variable names

Backup Remote to Local
Description
This role pulls backups from a remote server and stores them locally using rsync with retry logic. It is designed to retrieve remote backup data and integrate with your overall backup scheme.
Overview
Optimized for Archlinux, this role is a key component of a comprehensive backup system. It works in conjunction with other roles to ensure that backup data is collected, verified, and maintained. The role uses a Bash script to pull backups, manage remote connections, and handle incremental backup creation.
Purpose
Backup Remote to Local is a robust solution for retrieving backup data from remote servers. By leveraging rsync, it creates incremental backups that support both file and database recovery. This ensures the integrity and security of your backup data across distributed environments.
Features
- Remote Backup Retrieval: Pulls backups from a remote server using secure SSH connections.
- Incremental Backup with rsync: Uses rsync with options for archive, backup, and hard linking to efficiently manage changes.
- Retry Logic: Implements a retry mechanism to handle transient network issues or remote errors.
- Integration with Other Roles: Works alongside roles like sys-svc-directory-validator, sys-ctl-cln-faild-bkps, sys-timer, sys-bkp-provider, and sys-lock.
- Administrative Debugging: Detailed debug instructions and administrative tasks are provided in a separate file.
