Windows (from 3.1 to 10), CentOS 6 to 8, Ubuntu, Fedora, Red Hat,

to restart a service (that's what windows-10 still do).
That said, the original question is more like: is there a dnf dist-upgrade or
similar to what is available on fedora for upgrading centos-7 to centos-8:
$ sudo dnf upgrade --refresh# Make sur packages are up to date in current

I searched a bit to see if there is a way to upgrade from CentOS 7 directly to
CentOS 8. I found RHEL instructions but not CentOS. Although they probably
