Check which services are running

To see which services are running, we are going to use the service keyword

(/usr/sbin/service)

Its almost the same way in all Linux Platforms.

In CentOS, its like this

service < option > | --status-all | [ service_name [ command | --full-restart ] ]

> service --status-all | grep postgres

postgresql-9.4 (pid  31632) is running...


To restart a service 

service application_name restart

> service postgresql restart
