Gearman is an open source distributed job scheduler that allows you to distribute workloads across multiple machines. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Gearman on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before installing Gearman, it is essential to keep your system up-to-date. Use the following command to update Fedora CoreOS:
sudo dnf update -y
This command will update all the installed packages on your system.
You can install Gearman from the Fedora repositories using the following command:
sudo dnf install gearmand -y
This command will install the Gearman daemon and its dependencies on your system.
Once the installation process is complete, you can verify the Gearman daemon's status using the following command:
sudo systemctl status gearmand
You should see output similar to the following:
● gearmand.service - Multi-Language Gearman Server
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/gearmand.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

If the Gearman daemon is not running, you can start it using the following command:
sudo systemctl start gearmand
You can also enable Gearman to start at boot time using the following command:
sudo systemctl enable gearmand
You have successfully installed and configured Gearman on Fedora CoreOS. You can now use Gearman to distribute workloads across multiple machines.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
