You are mixing things in there, systemd module does NOT have ‘command’ or ‘start’ options

Brian, I am very new to anisble but in the link you provided i can see some examples with systemd, it has state mentioned, but how can i use command to restart the service

```auto
- name: restart service cron on centos, in all cases, also issue daemon-reload to pick up config changes
  systemd:
    state: restarted
    daemon_reload: yes
    name: crond

```

The whole point of the systemd module (or any other module, really) is to abstract commands away, so don’t have to use them.

Try out the examples and enjoy!
