## Running RQ Workers Under systemd
|
|
|
|
Systemd is process manager that's built into many popular Linux distributions.
|
|
|
|
To run multiple workers under systemd, you'll first need to create a unit file.
|
|
|
|
We can name this file `rqworker@.service`, put this file in `/etc/systemd/system`
|
|
directory (location may differ by what distributions you run).
|
|
|
|

|
|

[Install]

|
WantedBy=multi-user.target

|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
If your unit file is properly installed, you should be able to start workers by
|
|
invoking `systemctl start rqworker@1.service`, `systemctl start rqworker@2.service`
|
|
from the terminal.
|
|
|
|
You can also reload all the workers by invoking `systemctl reload rqworker@*`.
