Hi team - is there a way to do a
install
with the
DockerAgent
? Or, what is the easiest way to run the agent in the background ?

Hi @Brad - it’s a good question; we don’t have a preferred way of running that agent in the background. I recommend looking at one of the following options: - running the
start
command with
nohup
- running the
start
command with
&
to background it - using
screen
to run the process in a background screen session - tweaking the
supervisord
file from
prefect agent install
to fit the Docker agent
