Use "systemctl edit <unit>" to edit a drop-in snippet.

This will create a file in /etc/systemd/system/<unit>.d/ that overrides 
settings in the unit file packaged in the rpm.  You only need to specify 
the settings which you wish to override.

See man pages for systemctl, systemd.unit, and systemd-delta for more 
information.
