Description of problem: The behaviour of 'apachectl status' changed between RHEL 6 and 7. In RHEL 6, it is basically a flavour of 'apachectl fullstatus', i.e. it returns a server status page generated by mod_status. In RHEL 7, by contrast, 'apachectl status' is a mere synonym to 'systemctl status httpd'. Two very different beasts, yet the documentation is same for both, cf. 'man apachectl' on RHEL 6 and 7: ... status Displays a brief status report. Similar to the fullstatus option, except that the list of requests currently being served is omitted. ... Provided the functionality is not going to change, the RHEL-7 apachectl man page should be updated to reflect the actual behaviour.
