- You can use [forever](https://github.com/nodejitsu/forever) to have the process always running:
```
$ yarn global add forever
$ forever start bin/xo-server
```
- Or you can use [forever-service](https://github.com/zapty/forever-service) to install XO as a service, so it starts automatically at boot. As root:
```
yarn global add forever
yarn global add forever-service
cd /home/username/xo-server/bin/
forever-service install orchestra -r username -s xo-server
```
Be sure to change the usernames to the user you are running xo-server as. The forever-service command must be run in the xo-server bin directory. Now you can manage the service, and it will start on boot with the machine:
```
service orchestra start
service orchestra status
```
If you need to delete the service:
```
forever-service delete orchestra
```
