Install a JOD Distribution as a Service

When you run a JOD Distribution with the start.sh|ps1 JOD Dist Cmd, it can still run until the operating system reboots; but after that the distribution must be re-started manually.

To avoid this operation, you can install the JOD Distribution as a service in the working operating system. That means the operating system take care to restart the distribution on each boot. So you can safely switch on/off the device where you installed the JOD Distribution, without worry to restart it each time.

caution

install.sh|ps1 and uninstall.sh|ps1 JOD Dist Cmd require administrator permission on working machine. So during the process, they will ask you to grant admin access.

Depending on where you copied JOD Distribution's files, you must open a terminal session and execute the install.sh|ps1 JOD Dist Cmd from $JOD_DIST_DIR folder.
