Running Airflow with systemd ============================ Airflow can integrate with systemd based systems. This makes watching your daemons easy as ``systemd`` can take care of restarting a daemon on failures. In the ``scripts/systemd`` directory, you can find unit files that have been tested on Redhat based systems. These files can be used as-is by copying them over to ``/usr/lib/systemd/system``. The following **assumptions** have been made while creating these unit files: #. Airflow runs as the following ``user:group`` ``airflow:airflow``. #. Airflow runs on a Redhat based system. If this is not the case, appropriate changes will need to be made. Please **note** that environment configuration is picked up from ``/etc/sysconfig/airflow``. An example file is supplied within ``scripts/systemd``. You can also define configuration at :envvar:`AIRFLOW_HOME` or :envvar:`AIRFLOW_CONFIG`.
