Hello, I'm getting a Prefect server set up on a RHEL server for the first time. I have a question related to the local agent- is there any way to run the agent "detached" like the server command? With the server, I can run

prefect server start --detach

so it doesn't run interactively. Is there a comparable solution for agents? When my ssh session with the server ends, so does my agent. I might just be missing something obvious. Appreciate any help.

Hi @Chris Bowen, not quite as seamless as

--detach

but there is this section of the docs. You can use whatever tool lets you run background processes.

supervisor

is just an example.

Thanks @Kevin Kho, that is extremely helpful! I'll take a look at the

supervisor

suggestion.
