Migrated remaining docs pages as part of the July 31st docs re-org project. (See https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/issues/13684) Changes: - Removed "Commands" section from fleet-server-configuration.md - Moved systemd, using a proxy, SSO, and public IP content to the "Deploy" docs and added stubs in the original file to preserve bookmarked links. - Changed the headings of the original stubs in the point above to be wrapped in an HTML H2 tag to hide them from the "On this page navigation." - Updated left side-bar styling to match wireframes. # Checklist for submitter - [x] Manual QA for all new/changed functionality --------- Co-authored-by: Rachael Shaw <r@rachael.wtf>

Systemd
Run 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, assuming a fleet user exists on the system. Any user with sufficient
permissions to execute the binary, open the configuration files, and write the log files can be
used. It is also possible to run as root, though as with any other web server it is discouraged
to run Fleet as root.
[Unit]
Description=Fleet
After=network.target
[Service]
User=fleet
Group=fleet
LimitNOFILE=8192
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/fleet serve \
--mysql_address=127.0.0.1:3306 \
--mysql_database=fleet \
--mysql_username=root \
--mysql_password=toor \
--redis_address=127.0.0.1:6379 \
--server_cert=/tmp/server.cert \
--server_key=/tmp/server.key \
--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
