Running with systemd
Once you've verified that you can run fleet in your shell, you'll likely want to keep fleet running in the background and after the server reboots. To do that we recommend using systemd.
Below is a sample unit file.
[Unit]
Description=Fleet
After=network.target
[Service]
LimitNOFILE=8192
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/fleet serve \
--mysql_address=127.0.0.1:3306 \
--mysql_database=kolide \
--mysql_username=root \
--mysql_password=toor \
--redis_address=127.0.0.1:6379 \
--server_cert=/tmp/server.cert \
--server_key=/tmp/server.key \
--auth_jwt_key=this_string_is_not_secure_replace_it \
--logging_json
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Once you created the file, you need to move it to /etc/systemd/system/fleet.service and start the service.
sudo mv fleet.service /etc/systemd/system/fleet.service
sudo systemctl start fleet.service
sudo systemctl status fleet.service
sudo journalctl -u fleet.service -f
Making changes
Sometimes you'll need to update the systemd unit file defining the service. To do that, first open /etc/systemd/system/fleet.service in a text editor, and make your modifications.
Then, run
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart fleet.service
