<h1>Running Airflow with systemd<a class="headerlink" href="#running-airflow-with-systemd" title="Permalink to this headline">ΒΆ</a></h1>
<p>Airflow can integrate with systemd based systems. This makes watching your
daemons easy as systemd can take care of restarting a daemon on failure.
In the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">scripts/systemd</span></code> directory you can find unit files that
have been tested on Redhat based systems. You can copy those to
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/usr/lib/systemd/system</span></code>. It is assumed that Airflow will run under
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">airflow:airflow</span></code>. If not (or if you are running on a non Redhat
based system) you probably need to adjust the unit files.</p>
<p>Environment configuration is picked up from <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/etc/sysconfig/airflow</span></code>.
An example file is supplied. Make sure to specify the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SCHEDULER_RUNS</span></code>
variable in this file when you run the scheduler. You
can also define here, for example, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">AIRFLOW_HOME</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">AIRFLOW_CONFIG</span></code>.</p>
