That's help of course.
I know how I can do check in bash. Purely theoretically I can use next 
condition

not_if { File.exist?(/run/apache2.pid) }

But I was hope that chef has a built-in syntax to check service status.

Because I don't want to waste a time to create and run script if script 
should not run.

Thank you for hint.
