How to run multiple agents in one machine

After installing Croncat Agent and registering accounts, you can run multiple agents on your machine. To do this, you need to do near login for all accounts on which you want to run the agent. Next, you need to start a screen session for each agent. For example, you have 3 accounts: agent-1.testnet, agent-2.testnet, agent-3.testnet

Start a new session:

screen -S croncat-1

Start the croncat agent:

croncat go agent-1.testnet > log-1 2>&1

Exit the session:

Ctrl+A D

Watch session logs:

tail -n 1000 -f log-1

The same should be done for agent-2.testnet and agent-3.testnet. But you need to change screen -S croncat-1 to screen -S croncat-2, log-1 to log-2, etc.

Find out the status of Croncat Agent

Croncat status

Through the command croncat status <accountId>, you can find out the status of the agent.

Example:

croncat status jakson.testnet

Output:

total tasks executed: 0

The status indicates the activity of the agent. The "Pending" status means that the agent is not active right now, because there are more agents than tasks.
