rc-service: Show a service's status.
$ rc-service ${service_name} status
try on your machine
This command is used to check the status of a service on a Linux-based system.
The placeholders "${service_name}" should be replaced with the actual name of the service you want to check.
When executed, this command will query the service manager about the current status of the specified service. The service manager, usually init or systemd depending on the Linux distribution, will provide information about whether the service is running or not, as well as additional details about its status.
By using this command, you can quickly determine if a specific service is active, inactive, or perhaps experiencing any issues.
