# Lotus and Miner as a systemd service
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lotus is capable of running as a systemd service daemon. You can find installable service files for systemd in the [lotus repo](https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/tree/master/scripts) as files with `.service` extension. In order to install these service files, you can copy these `.service` files to the default systemd service path.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installing via `make`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: Before using lotus and lotus-miner as systemd services, don't forget to `sudo make install` to ensure the binaries are accessible by the root user.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If your host uses the default systemd service path, it can be installed with `sudo make install-services`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ sudo make install-services
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Interacting with service logs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Logs from the services can be reviewed using `journalctl`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Follow logs from a specific service unit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ sudo journalctl -u lotus-daemon -f
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### View logs in reverse order
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ sudo journalctl -u lotus-miner -r
|
||
|
|
```
