hi!

in fact systemd recognizes jenkins as a legacy service when trying to 
enable it ... (this step is missing in the documentation):

# systemctl enable jenkins
jenkins.service is not a native service, redirecting to 
systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable jenkins
Failed to execute /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install: No such file or 
directory

systemd-sysv-install is part of package chkconfig, so after executing ...

# dnf install chkconfig
# systemctl enable jenkins
# systemctl start jenkins

... it works!

thx!

regards
-h
