Services

Systemd
Starting all programs manually is such a pain. So we are going to take a few minutes to create the systemd services.
Creating those services will allow a fully automated process that you will never have to do again if your node reboots.
Please set all the services provided here.

Grafana
Grafana’s service is automatically created during the extraction of the deb package, you do not need to create it manually.
​
Now it's getting exciting! We are going to fire up everything. In case of any errors in a file, go back some steps and check if you haven't missed anything.
If you really don't know what's wrong. Join our Discord, where we provide you with support.
