+# The `service` command
+
+Service runs a System V init script in as predictable environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with current working directory set to /. 
+
+The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT. The supported values of COMMAND depend on the invoked script, service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS it to the init script unmodified. All scripts should support at least the start and stop commands. As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start command.
+
+The COMMAND can be at least start, stop, status, and restart.
+
+service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the `status` command
+
+Examples :
+
+1. To check the status of all the running services:  
+
+```
+service --status-all
+```
+
+2.  To run a script 
+
+```
+service SCRIPT-Name start
+```
+
+3. A more generalized command:
+
+```
+service [SCRIPT] [COMMAND] [OPTIONS]
+
+```
