==== Prerequisites ====

==== 1.Download Serviio ====

</code>
==== 4 openSuse 15.6 - Systemd script ====
Create the systemd script **/usr/lib/systemd/system/serviio.service** with the following code: (If content library is available via nfs or cifs, add remote-fs.target in After=)
<code>
[Unit]
Description=Start the serviio DLNA server in headless mode
After=local-fs.target network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=root
ExecStart=/opt/serviio/bin/serviio.sh
ExecStop=/opt/serviio/bin/serviio.sh -stop
Restart=on-abort

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
</code>
<note>I used user "root" to run serviio, I found that when adding disks etc. later on, or migrating disks from other distro's that serviio does not update the library, because of the file permissions. So this is what I did, there are more than one way to handle those permissions.</note>
