**However**, this doesn't mean that the values are undefined in Icinga 2. Icinga 2 itself has built-in default values for many object parameters and falls back to them if one isn't present in an object definition. See the docs for individual object types in [Configuring Icinga 2](http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/configuring-icinga2) for more info about which object parameters have what default values.
####Notifying the Icinga 2 service
By default, each object defined type will automatically notify and restart the Icinga 2 service. However, if you're using the module to just generate object files and not using it to manage the service, you'll likely get compilation errors about the `icinga2` service not being in the catalog.
Each object defined type has a boolean parameter, `refresh_icinga2_service`, that controls whether the object file will notify the service. To **not** notify the service, set it to `false`:
<pre>
icinga2::object::apply_dependency { 'usermail_dep_on_icinga2mail':
parent_host_name => 'icinga2mail.local',
target_file_owner => vagrant,
assign_where => 'match("^usermail*", host.name)',
refresh_icinga2_service => false,
}
</pre>
