LOAD   = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB    = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.

23 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.

[2]	Stop a service. The example below means stop 'sendmail' and disable auto-start at booting system.

[root@dlp ~]#

systemctl stop sendmail.service

[root@dlp ~]#

systemctl disable sendmail.service

rm '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/sm-client.service'
rm '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/sendmail.service'

[3]	There are some SysV services on Fedora 19. Those are controled by chkconfig like below.

[root@dlp ~]#

chkconfig --list


Note: This output shows SysV services only and does not include native
      systemd services. SysV configuration data might be overridden by native
      systemd configuration.

      If you want to list systemd services use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.
      To see services enabled on particular target use
      'systemctl list-dependencies [target]'.
