How to run a specific worker in ManageIQ?

Sometimes I need to run on specific MIQ worker in foreground. rake evm:start runs all the workers, but if I need just one, how can I do that?

Solution

  • In case if you are unsure what workers to work with, you might be able to do the following:

    1. run evm server normally: bundle exec rake evm:start and see what worker types were running: bundle exec rake evm:status

    2. kill evm server: bundle exec rake evm:stop

    3. start a single worker in the foreground:

    ruby lib/workers/bin/run_single_worker.rb MiqWorkerClassHere
