Running Apache Ignite as a Service
When running on Windows 10 WSL or Docker, you should start Apache Ignite as a stand-alone process (not as a service). We recommend to install Apache Ignite 3 using ZIP archive in these environments.
To start an Apache Ignite node with a custom configuration, run the following command:
sudo systemctl start ignite3db
To launch the node at system startup, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable ignite3db
Running Apache Ignite as a Stand-Alone Process
Generally, you would want to run Apache Ignite as a service. However, Apache Ignite also provides a startup script that can be used to start it as a stand-alone application. To run it, use the following command:
sudo bash /usr/share/ignite3db/start.sh 1>/tmp/ignite3-start.log 2>&1 &
