+# pipefail: so that redirecting stderr from the script to systemd-cat does not hide the failed command from OnFailure above.
+# `systemd-cat`: allows showing the restic output to the systemd journal
+ExecStart=/bin/bash -c 'set -o pipefail; source /etc/restic/%I.env.sh && /bin/restic_check.sh 2>&1 | systemd-cat'
