Managing the Service

The scripts that AMPS installs provide management functions for the AMPS service. The scripts are used in the same way scripts for other Linux services are used.

Starting the AMPS Service

To start the AMPS service, use the following command if your system uses System V init scripts:

sudo /etc/init.d/amps start

Many systems that use System V init scripts also provide convenience commands (such as service) to locate and run commands for working with daemons. Check your distribution's documentation for details.

If your system uses SystemD, you can use a command like:

sudo systemctl start amps

Stopping the AMPS Service

To stop the AMPS service, use the following command if your system uses System V init scripts:

sudo /etc/init.d/amps stop

Many distributions that use System V init scripts also provide convenience commands (such as the service program) for working with daemons. Check your distribution's documentation for details.

If your system uses SystemD, you can use a command like:

sudo systemctl stop amps

Restarting the AMPS Service

To restart the AMPS service, use the following command if your system uses System V init scripts:

sudo /etc/init.d/amps restart

Many distributions that use System V init scripts also provide convenience commands (such as the service program) for working with daemons. Check your distribution's documentation for details.

If your distribution uses SystemD, you can use a command like:

sudo systemctl restart amps

View Status for the AMPS Service

To see the status of the AMPS service, use the following command if your system uses System V init scripts:

sudo /etc/init.d/amps status

Many distributions that use System V init scripts also provide convenience commands (such as the service program) for working with daemons. Check your distribution's documentation for details.

If your distribution uses SystemD, you can use a command like:

sudo systemctl status amps
