Thanks Mantas for replying. 

ExecStartPre=-/bin/su ubuntu -c "/home/ubuntu/build-target/kafka/kafka-systemd-prestart.sh"
ExecStart=/bin/su ubuntu -c "/home/ubuntu/build-target/kafka/kafka-systemd-health.sh"
ExecStopPost=-/bin/bash /home/ubuntu/build-target/kafka/kafka-systemd-poststop.sh

If I specify User= then all the scripts will be executed with that user. Can you let me know if I only need to execute kafka-systemd-prestart.sh and kafka-systemd-health.sh with let's say ubuntu user and kafka-systemd-poststop.sh with root user what is the recommended way to do this?

Doing sudo journalctl -u kafka.service looks like below

Take a look at `journalctl -o verbose SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=su _PID=38464`.

I suspect the messages *are* in the journal, just not tagged with UNIT=kafka.service anymore. In some distros, `su` is actually configured to call pam_systemd and set up a new systemd-logind session – when this happens, the process is moved out of kafka.service into a user session scope, and its syslog messages are grouped accordingly.

Consider replacing `su` with `runuser`, or indeed with systemd's [Service] User= option.
