Around the same time I am seeing the below error in syslog

May 18 08:49:24 platform3 systemd[1]: Removed slice User Slice of support.
May 18 08:49:27 platform3 systemd[1]: Assertion 's->type ==
SERVICE_ONESHOT' failed at ../src/core/service.c:1792, function
service_enter_start(). Aborting.
May 18 08:49:27 platform3 systemd[1]: Caught <ABRT>, dumped core as pid 15839.
May 18 08:49:27 platform3 systemd[1]: Freezing execution.

busctl output looks like below

The issue comes once in a while. The only way I can recover the setup
is to reboot.
