Type=simple

# Enable logging to file

# Start 'foregroun' but not 'start' (daemon) mode.

# Give EMQX enough file descriptors
LimitNOFILE=1048576

# ExecStop is commented out so systemd will send a SIGTERM when 'systemctl stop'.
# SIGTERM is handled by EMQX and it then performs a graceful shutdown
# It's better than command 'emqx stop' because it needs to ping the node
# ExecStop=/usr/bin/emqx stop

# Wait long enough before force kill for graceful shutdown

Restart=on-failure

# Do not restart immediately so the peer nodes in the cluster have
# enough time to handle the 'DOWN' events of this node
