= Mapping service commands

The following table demonstrates the _systemd_ equivalent of SysVinit commands.

NOTE: All recent versions of `systemctl` assume the `.service` suffix if left off the service name. For example, `systemctl start frobozz.service` is the same as `systemctl start frobozz`.

[cols=",,",options="header",]
|===
|Sysvinit Command |systemd Command |Notes
|`service frobozz start`|`systemctl start frobozz`|Used to start a service (not reboot persistent)

|`service frobozz stop`|`systemctl stop frobozz`|Used to stop a service (not reboot persistent)

|`service frobozz restart`|`systemctl restart frobozz`|Used to stop and then start a service

|`service frobozz reload`|`systemctl reload frobozz`|When supported, reloads the config file without interrupting pending operations.

|`service frobozz condrestart`|`systemctl condrestart frobozz`|Restarts if the service is already running.

|`service frobozz status`|`systemctl status frobozz`|Tells whether a service is currently running.

|`ls /etc/rc.d/init.d/`|`systemctl` or `systemctl list-unit-files --type=service` or +
`ls /lib/systemd/system/\*.service /etc/systemd/system/*.service`|Used to list the services that can be started or stopped +
Used to list all the services and other units

|`chkconfig frobozz on`|`systemctl enable frobozz`|Turn the service on, for start at next boot, or other trigger.

|`chkconfig frobozz off`|`systemctl disable frobozz`|Turn the service off for the next reboot, or any other trigger.

|`chkconfig frobozz`|`systemctl is-enabled frobozz`|Used to check whether a service is configured to start or not in the current environment.

|`chkconfig --list`|`systemctl list-unit-files --type=service` or `ls /etc/systemd/system/*.wants/`|Print a table of services that lists which runlevels each is configured on or off

|`chkconfig --list \| grep 5:on`|`systemctl list-dependencies graphical.target`|Print a table of services that will be started when booting into graphical mode

|`chkconfig frobozz --list`|`ls /etc/systemd/system/*.wants/frobozz.service`|Used to list what levels this service is configured on or off

|`chkconfig frobozz --add`|`systemctl daemon-reload`|Used when you create a new service file or modify any configuration
|===

NOTE: All `/sbin/service` and `/sbin/chkconfig` commands listed in the table continue to work on _systemd_-based systems and are translated to native equivalents as necessary. The only exception is `chkconfig --list`.
