Permanently disable unused services

Hello,

is there an option to permanently disable services? If i stop airplay for example, its up and running after rebbot again.
How can i keep it shut down?

Kind regards,

Flo

Stopping services like that is meant to offer temporary control over the services running on the device. If you want the container removed, you may remove it from the docker-compose.yml file.

okay, but i can’t find this File via my Windows Laptop, right?

Does it need console prompts to disable this?

…sorry, complete noob if it comes to console operation :slight_smile:

Hi there,

In order to permanently stop running services, you’ll need to follow the CLI deploy instructions here: https://sound.balenalabs.io/docs/getting-started#cli-deploy. After downloading the source code but before pushing to your application, you’ll want to remove those stanzas from your docker-compose.yml. If you need more information, please do check out our CLI masterclass (https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/more/masterclasses/cli-masterclass/#balena-cli-masterclass) or our Getting Started guides: https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/getting-started/raspberrypi3/nodejs/.

Please let us know if you have further issues!
