Service + Scheduler Issues

Looking for some advice around work scheduling and launcher configuration.

We’ve got it set so our workstations join our farm at a certain time, using all the variables in terms of CPU, Memory and Application exceptions.

The issue we have is running Linux, the launcher can’t run as a service. So we were thinking auto-launching the launcher on login?

Is anyone running this in a different way? Or has any advice?

We’ve created a systemd launcher for the launcher, that works. The Worker launches and then stops near enough immediately. Anyone seen the same?

This is not really true, the launcher runs fine as a service

Yeah, our launcher works as a service. However the subsequent worker that launches, closes down not long after.

Show us some error logs. It is supposed to work.
