Systemctl is a systemd utility that is responsible for Controlling the systemd system and service manager. Systemd is a collection of system management daemons, utilities, and libraries which serves as a replacement of System V init daemon. Systemd functions as central management and configuration platform

To list all loaded services on your system (whether active; running, exited or failed, use the list-units subcommand and --type switch with a value of service.

# systemctl list-units --type=service
OR
# systemctl --type=service

But to get a quick glance of all running services (i.e all loaded and actively running services), run the following command.

# systemctl list-units --type=service --state=running 
OR
# systemctl --type=service --state=running

List all failed units.

# systemctl --failed

Check whether a Unit or Service is running or not?.

# systemctl status httpd-e-smith

How do I start, restart, stop, reload and check the status of a service (httpd.service) in Linux.

# systemctl start httpd-e-smith.service
# systemctl restart httpd-e-smith.service
# systemctl stop httpd-e-smith.service
# systemctl reload httpd-e-smith.service
# systemctl status httpd-e-smith.service
