[CentOS] Running amanda on CentOS 7: "amanda-udp.service failed."

I am trying to get amanda backup going on a CentOS 7 system and things are not 
working:

sharky4.deepsoft.com% sudo systemctl start amanda-udp
[sudo] password for heller:

exceeded. See "systemctl status amanda-udp.service" and
"journalctl -xe" for details.

[CentOS] Running amanda on CentOS 7: "amanda-udp.service failed."

Hi Robert -

I'm running it successfully on C7 using xinetd.? Do you have 
documentation for running it directly from systemd?? Working xinetd 
configuration:

cat /etc/xinetd.d/amanda
# default: off
# description:? The client for the Amanda backup system.\
#?????????????? This must be on for systems being backed up\
#?????????????? by Amanda.
service amanda
{
 ??? disable???????? = no
 ??? socket_type???? = dgram
 ??? protocol??? ??? = udp
 ??? wait??? ??? ??? = yes
 ??? user??? ??? ??? = amandabackup
 ??? group??? ??? ?? = disk
 ??? server??? ??? ? = /usr/sbin/amandad
# Configure server_args for the authentication type you will be using,
# and the services you wish to allow the amanda server and/or recovery
# clients to use.
#
# Change the -auth= entry to reflect the authentication type you use.
# Add amindexd to allow recovery clients to access the index database.
# Add amidxtaped to allow recovery clients to access the tape device.
 ??? server_args??? ? = -auth=bsd amdump
 ??? flags??? ??? ??? = IPv4
}

Cheers,
Dave

I just install amanda-client and that created the systemd service files, which 
I presumed was how things were supposed to work now.

I guess I will install xinetd and go from there instead.

You don't start the service directly.   Start and enable the socket and 
then it will start the service when a connection is made.

systemctl enable amanda-udp.socket
systemctl start amanda-udp.socket
