[CentOS] Cemtos 7 : Systemd alternatives ?

[Richard Mann]

You can still run apache's configtest

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/System_Administrators_Guide/ch-Web_Servers.html

httpd Service Control
With the migration away from SysV init scripts, server administrators should switch to using the apachectl and systemctl commands to control the service, in place of the service command. The following examples are specific to the httpd service. The command:
service httpd graceful
is replaced by
apachectl graceful
The command:
service httpd configtest
is replaced by
apachectl configtest
The systemd unit file for httpd has different behavior from the init script as follows:
A graceful restart is used by default when the service is reloaded.
A graceful stop is used by default when the service is stopped.

Thanks,
Richard

What I meant is that it doesn't support extra action verbs, such as
'service httpd configtest'.  I didn't mean to indicate that it ONLY
supported start, stop, restart and status.
