Pretty much identical to what I wrote. You can find information about
User and Group in systemd.exec.
Minor detail: you don't want the Install section in the service file.
systemd wouldn't know what to fill in behind the @.

Can you get more information why the service fails? Maybe the amanda
log or systemctl status give you a clue...
