5.7.3 Verifying that the OpenSearch Dashboards Service Starts Automatically

After you install the OpenSearch Dashboards service and verify the installation, test to make sure the service starts automatically after you reboot the Linux server.

1. Reboot the Linux server.

2. Verify that the service has come up automatically.

   systemctl status opensearch-dashboards

   This should give an output with the status “active (running),” as shown in bold font in this sample:
