Summary0005929: have a reliable way to start BB workers and master
DescriptionCurrently we start them manually. This means, though, that after a restart, these services will be down.

Maybe systemd user units are appropriate for this? We want to avoid needing to be "root" for administering these services.

system user files sounds good enough, I'll explore if this works or apply another solution.

Correction, for the record (and notes for myself): unless my information is too old, systemd user units only exist as long as a session of that user exists (and only start to exist once the user logs in). We want https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/loginctl.html for that. user units + loginctl are what could get the job done.



- we also have to check if we need to add XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$UID to the environment before next reboot

You can configure systemd so that user units linger!

See here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/systemd/User (search under the keyword linger).
