README: consolidate systemctl commands #334
Conversation

The See systemd changelog showing it was introduced in v220, 7 years ago. Figured worth noting this here, in case subsequent queries come in from folk saying the step in the README isn't working on their (old and crusty!) environment. |
Fair point, I admit I didn't realize it was that "new". But Ubuntu bionic, the oldest still supported LTS release, shipped with systemd 237, and CentOS/RHEL didn't even adopt systemd until their release 7, when it was at... sh*t! 219. FML. Well... the maintainers' call, of course. But in light of RHEL7 |
I think the fine folk at Red Hat back ported the --now functionality into the systemd they shipped at RHEL 7 GA. So all good on that distro. |
Display the commands that can be used when option --now is not supported by systemd. Signed-off-by: Sebastien GODARD <[email protected]>

Commit 0726684 also adds the old syntax for those using a systemd version not supporting option |
It's a really minor thing, but the two commands provided in the README:
$ sudo systemctl enable sysstat $ sudo systemctl start sysstatcan be written as a single command using the
systemctl enable --nowflag. This PR updates the README commands accordingly.
