Prefect Community

Hi, I'm following this tutorial to set a worker to automatically start when a server reboots: <https://discourse.prefect.io/t/how-to-run-a-prefect-2-worker-as-a-systemd-service-on-linux/1450>.  I've got the service setup to start "worker start -p default-agent-pool", which has the default queue within, but when I start the prefect-worker service, the default queue says unhealthy. Am I missing something? Does an agent need starting to, from the docs it seems that a worker can be used instead of an agent? Any help would be appreciated :slightly_smiling_face: and if you need more info then let me know

I've realised that default-agent-pool is obviously, as the name suggests, an agent. So in this case, a new pool would need creating as a "process" it seems. So I can follow the same steps in the guide, but do prefect agent start -p default-agent-pool instead? Will give it a go!
