Auto-start

It is useful to have the DX Cluster auto-start when the computer starts. The method used is entirely dependent on the flavour of Linux being used.

Ubuntu - systemd

Copy the dxspider.service file into the Linux file system.

# cp /spider/dxspider.service /etc/systemd/system/

Start the service

# systemctl start dxspider.service

On some systems it may also need enabling

# systemctl enable dxspider.service

Become the sysop user

#  su - sysop 

Verify the cluster is running by opening the admin console

$ dx
