How to list all services in Ubuntu 18.04?
18.04 ubuntu systemctl services bash 20.04
There are many ways to display all linux services. But to be
honest, these methods fails to list all services usually. The
proper one to use, utilizes
systemctl
command. Your
system might use different service initialization commands, like
popular service
. However when command
systemctl
is available it should yield good results
with list-units
option. Some extra parameters are
added, which are self explainable.
List all services
systemctl list-units --all --type=service --no-pager
The output of command lists table with service name, whether it
is enabled and if it is running at the
moment as well some description.
Example output of command
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION accounts-daemon.service loaded active running Accounts Service acpid.service loaded active running ACPI event daemon alsa-restore.service loaded active exited Save/Restore Sound Card State alsa-state.service loaded inactive dead Manage Sound Card State (restore and store) anacron.service loaded inactive dead Run anacron jobs ● apache2.service masked inactive dead apache2.service apparmor.service loaded active exited AppArmor initialization apport.service loaded active exited LSB: automatic crash report generation apt-daily-upgrade.service loaded inactive dead Daily apt upgrade and clean activities apt-daily.service loaded inactive dead Daily apt download activities atd.service loaded active running Deferred execution scheduler
