SysVinit is traditional & mother of init system which is the first process get started by kernel and holding PID 1. All the services is available on “/etc/init.d/” folder. If you want to start, stop, restart, enable, reload & status of the service follow the below commands to do it. Make sure you should have root or sudo Permission to run the below commands. Here I have covered all the services commands such as Apache, MySQL, MariaDB, Bind (Named, Bind9), Nginx, Lighttpd, Exim, Postfix, Sendmail, Qmail, etc..
