> This depends on your version of Ubuntu, but for most recent versions, you can use the systemctl command (as root). These are pretty simple commands: systemctl status ignition – Check the status systemctl start ignition – Start it now systemctl stop ignition – Stop it now systemctl enable ignition – Autostart on boot systemctl disable ignition – Remove the autostart symlinks Older versions of Ubuntu generally use init scripts.
