+.SH NAME
+service \- run a System V init script
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+\fBservice\fP \fISCRIPT\fP \fICOMMAND\fP [\fIOPTIONS\fP]
+.sp
+\fBservice\fP \fB\-\-status\-all\fP
+.sp
+\fBservice\fP \fB\-\-help\fP | \fB\-h\fP | \fB\-\-version\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+\fBservice\fP runs a System V init script or systemd unit in as predictable an
+environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the
+current working directory set to \fB/\fP\&.
+.sp
+The
+\fISCRIPT\fP
+parameter specifies a System V init script, located in \fI/etc/init.d/SCRIPT\fP,
+or the name of a systemd unit. The existence of a systemd unit of the same
+name as a script in \fB/etc/init.d\fP will cause the unit to take precedence
+over the init.d script.
+The supported values of \fICOMMAND\fP depend on the invoked script. \fBservice\fP
+passes \fICOMMAND\fP and \fIOPTIONS\fP to the init script unmodified. For systemd
+units, start, stop, status, and reload are passed through to their
+systemctl/initctl equivalents.
+.sp
+All scripts should support at least the \fBstart\fP and \fBstop\fP commands.
+As a special case, if \fICOMMAND\fP is \fB\-\-full\-restart\fP, the script is run
+twice, first with the \fBstop\fP command, then with the \fBstart\fP
+command. Note, that unlike \fBupdate\-rc.d\fP(8), \fBservice\fP does not
+check \fB/usr/sbin/policy\-rc.d\fP\&.
+.sp
+\fBservice \-\-status\-all\fP runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with
+the \fBstatus\fP command. The status is [ + ] for running services, [ \- ] for
+stopped services and [ ? ] for services without a \fBstatus\fP command. This
+option only calls status for sysvinit jobs.
+.SH EXIT CODES
+.sp
+\fBservice\fP calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.
