Get notification when systemd-monitored service enters failed state

Just my way to notify :

/etc/systemd/system/notify-email@.service 

[Unit]
Description=Sent email 

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/bash -c '/usr/bin/systemctl status %i | /usr/bin/mailx -Ssendwait -s "[SYSTEMD_%i] Fail" your_admin@company.blablabla'

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

add to systemd, example for ntpd.service: 

systemctl enable /etc/systemd/system/notify-email@ntpd.service

At others services add: 

systemctl edit ntpd

[Unit]
OnFailure=notify-email@%i.service

Reload the configuration: 

systemctl daemon-reload
