SysV Services In Redhat
SysV Services In Redhat
SysV services are persistent server programs launched during the boot process. Examples of SysV services include sshd, vsftpd, and xinetd.
Because these programs usually persist in memory as long as the machine is booted, each updated SysV service must be halted and relaunched after the package is upgraded. This can be done using the Services Configuration Tool or by logging into a root shell prompt and issuing the /sbin/service command as in the following example:
/sbin/service [ service-name ] restart
/sbin/service ssh restart
/sbin/service ssh restart
In the above example, replace with the name of the service, such as sshd.
