rc-service:tldr:e63f7

The command "sudo rc-service --resolve ${service_name}" is used to resolve the status of a service in a system managed by runit or OpenRC.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

• "sudo": It is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to execute a command as a superuser or another user.
• "rc-service": This is a command-line tool in some Linux distributions like Gentoo and Alpine that is used to manage services controlled by runit or OpenRC init systems.
• "--resolve": This option is used with the "rc-service" command to resolve or determine the status of a service.
• "${service_name}": It is a placeholder for the actual name of the service that you want to resolve the status for. You need to replace "${service_name}" with the specific service name.

Overall, when you run this command with the actual service name, it will check and display the status of the specified service, whether it is running, stopped, or in some other state. The "sudo" command is used to ensure that the "rc-service" command has the necessary permissions to interact with the system services.
