On Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and CentOS, the update-rc.d
command is not available. Instead, you can use the chkconfig
command to enable or disable services at different runlevels.
Here is the basic syntax for using the chkconfig
command to enable a service at runlevels 3, 4, and 5:
sudo chkconfig servicename on
Replace servicename
with the name of the service you want to enable.
For example, to enable the httpd
service at runlevels 3, 4, and 5, you can use the following command:
sudo chkconfig httpd on
To disable a service at runlevels 3, 4, and 5, you can use the off
option:
sudo chkconfig servicename off
For example, to disable the httpd
service at runlevels 3, 4, and 5, you can use the following command:
sudo chkconfig httpd off
By using the chkconfig
command, you can enable or disable services at different runlevels on RHEL and CentOS systems. It's always a good idea to carefully review the documentation and use the appropriate commands to manage services on your system. This will help ensure that your system is properly configured and that services are running as expected.
