Description of problem:
I have noted this failure.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:
always on mine one setup


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have system with osa-dispatcher failing to start (=> in "Active: failed (Result: exit-code)" state)
2. Attempt to get its state in cron or somewhere
   (maybe fact it do not have terminal is important here)
   # at now
   at> systemctl status  osa-dispatcher.service
   at> <EOT>

3. Check result of the job
