You will find the process is in /etc/rc.d/init.d as mbsed

You can therefore apply :

/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed status


E.g.,

[vince@Applewood ~]$ /etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed status
mbsed.service - SYSV: Starts and stops MBSE BBS.
  Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed)
  Active: active (exited) since Mon 2017-03-27 19:11:29 BST; 1 weeks 3 days
  ago


Also you can use :

[vince@Applewood ~]$ sudo systemctl status mbsed.service

Which returns :

 mbsed.service - SYSV: Starts and stops MBSE BBS.
  Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed)
  Active: active (exited) since Mon 2017-03-27 19:11:29 BST; 1 weeks 3 days
   ago


Of course you can use start | stop in place of status.

depending on your set up of Mag v5 you might need the sudo prefix for the
first
method depending on user priviledges.

Also you might see a message about daemon-xxx (where xxx = another
name that I have forgotten).
