I'm wondering about the implications of using either apache2ctl or systemctl.

If I understand correctly one shouldn't use anything but Systemd's utility to control services but on the other hand apache2ctl has a few extra features. Does systemctl in turn call apache2ctl or does it go another route altogether?

  • systemd normally calls init scripts in /etc/init.d unless there is a custom systemd service script available for the process or you create one yourself. Normally, systemd and init service scripts only start, stop, restart and report the status of services. I would use systemd for these functions and apachectl for others. – Raman Sailopal Sep 27 '17 at 09:03
