如何查询Linux服务的作用

服务列表好办,chkconfig --list 就有了,但是他们都是做什么用的,系统中是否用得到,怎么查?

1、man 服务名

最广泛使用的查询方式man

比如

# man abrtd
ABRTD(8)                          ABRT Manual                         ABRTD(8)
NAME
       abrtd - automated bug reporting tool麓s daemon.
SYNOPSIS
       abrtd [-dsv[v]...]
DESCRIPTION
       abrtd is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash
       occurs, it collects the problem data (core file, application��s command
       line etc.) and takes action according to the type of application that
       crashed and according to the configuration in the abrt.conf config
       file. There are plugins for various actions: for example to report the
       crash to Bugzilla, to mail the report, or to transfer the report via
       FTP or SCP. See the manual pages for the respective plugins.


2、rpm -qi

当然,也会有一些服务通过man查询不到, 比如 blk-availability 、 abrt-ccpp。

我们可以通过启动脚本对应的rpm包来查询,知道这个rpm包的作用,也就知道这个服务的作用了。

rpm -qi `rpm -qf /etc/rc.d/init.d/服务名` # 注意是反引号

看Description部分,一般就是这个rpm包的作用了,至少能看出来和哪些功能相关。

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qi `rpm -qf /etc/rc.d/init.d/blk-availability`
