@Marvin when running an API server with separate background services, what services should be started when running the prefect server start --no-services command? as in what should I see when I run 'prefect server services ls' on the dedicated API server?
n
ill check where marvin went here
to answer your question,
--no-services
should mean, no services are started
r
@Nate thanks yeah I'm not sure that the --no-services flag is working as expected, I'm still seeing all services running except for EventLogger and LogDistributor when I run the command 'prefect server services ls'
I had previously turned them off manually using env vars, which works for the time being. This is in the latest 3.4.23-python3.13-kubernetes image
n
i suspect the
ls
command may be fibbing here, but let me take a look
r
@Nate yeah I think you're right, when turning on debug mode I don't see any of the other services starting up
n
yea so i guess the
ls
output is misleading.
Enabled?
really means "would run if you did
prefect server start
per your env var situation", not "is running right now" might be prohibitively tricky to have it mean "running right now"
so maybe we should just change that column title
