service  runs  a  System  V  init  script  or  systemd unit in as predictable an environment as possible,
       removing most environment variables and with the current working directory set to /.

       The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT, or the  name  of  a
       systemd  unit. The existence of a systemd unit of the same name as a script in /etc/init.d will cause the
       unit to take precedence over the init.d script.  The supported values of COMMAND depend  on  the  invoked
       script.  service  passes  COMMAND   and  OPTIONS to the init script unmodified. For systemd units, start,
       stop, status, and reload are passed through to their systemctl/initctl equivalents.

       All scripts should support at least the start and stop commands.   As  a  special  case,  if  COMMAND  is
       --full-restart,  the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start command. Note,
       that unlike update-rc.d(8), service does not check /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d.

       service--status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command. The status is
       [ + ] for running services, [ - ] for stopped services and [ ? ] for services without a  status  command.
       This option only calls status for sysvinit jobs.

service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.
