# Starting Garage with systemd
|
||
|
|
||
|
We make some assumptions for this systemd deployment.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Your garage binary is located at `/usr/local/bin/garage`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Your configuration file is located at `/etc/garage.toml`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Your `garage.toml` must be set with `metadata_dir=/var/lib/garage/meta` and `data_dir=/var/lib/garage/data`. This is mandatory to use `systemd` hardening feature [Dynamic User](https://0pointer.net/blog/dynamic-users-with-systemd.html). Note that in your host filesystem, Garage data will be held in `/var/lib/private/garage`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Create a file named `/etc/systemd/system/garage.service`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```toml
|
||
|
[Unit]
|
||
|
Description=Garage Data Store
|
||
|
After=network-online.target
|
||
|
Wants=network-online.target
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Service]
|
||
|
Environment='RUST_LOG=garage=info' 'RUST_BACKTRACE=1'
|
||
|
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/garage server
|
||
|
StateDirectory=garage
|
||
|
DynamicUser=true
|
||
|
ProtectHome=true
|
||
|
NoNewPrivileges=true
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Install]
|
||
|
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
*A note on hardening: garage will be run as a non privileged user, its user id is dynamically allocated by systemd. It cannot access (read or write) home folders (/home, /root and /run/user), the rest of the filesystem can only be read but not written, only the path seen as /var/lib/garage is writable as seen by the service (mapped to /var/lib/private/garage on your host). Additionnaly, the process can not gain new privileges over time.*
|
||
|
|
||
|
To start the service then automatically enable it at boot:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo systemctl start garage
|
||
|
sudo systemctl enable garage
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
To see if the service is running and to browse its logs:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo systemctl status garage
|
||
|
sudo journalctl -u garage
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you want to modify the service file, do not forget to run `systemctl daemon-reload`
|
||
|
to inform `systemd` of your modifications.
