Hi All, How to run local or docker agent processes backend on a windows system? similar to Supervisor.

I think there is this thing called Windows task scheduler? are you familiar?

Windows task scheduler runs based on schedule. It actually call a windows command and the command could be executed under a specify AD account. I'm more looking for something like windows service. A typical windows service can start automatically after the windows server started and it can keep running until windows server shutdown. Because I do want the agent process runs like a listener instead of just a scheduled process.

Do you happen to run it on Azure? if so, we have agents on the Azure marketplace

I'm aware of that although I'm exploring running agents on on-premises window servers. We have some windows applications need to run as some steps in a flow. I have to run these windows applications in shelltasks and use local agent. It seems that docker agent doesn't like windows base images.

You're right, it's made for Linux, for Windows using local agent is probably the best option and your DevOps can probably help you run the agent startup command as a service - do you have someone in your team who can help with that?

Yeah, NSSM could be one of solutions. We'll try several options and let community know

Thanks for the info!
