# Running Multiple Instances
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run multiple instances of owntone on a server, you should copy
|
||
|
|
`/etc/owntone.conf` to `/etc/owntone-zone.conf` (for each `zone`) and
|
||
|
|
modify the following to be unique across all instances:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* the three port settings (`general` -> `websocket_port`,
|
||
|
|
`library` -> `port`, and `mpd` -> `port`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* the database paths (`general` -> `db_path`, `db_backup_path`, and `db_cache_path`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* the service name (`library` -> `name`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* you probably also want to disable local output (set `audio` -> `type =
|
||
|
|
"disabled"`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then run `owntone -c /etc/owntone-zone.conf` to run owntone with the new
|
||
|
|
zone configuration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Owntone has a `systemd` template which lets you run this automatically
|
||
|
|
on systems that use systemd. You can start or enable the service for
|
||
|
|
a `zone` by `sudo systemctl start owntone@zone` and check that it is
|
||
|
|
running with `sudo systemctl status owntone@zone`. Use `sudo
|
||
|
|
systemctl enable ownton@zone` to get the service to start on reboot.
