# Manage multiple machines

> Run more than one paired machine or workspace without stealing tasks.

## One machine, several workspaces

Use when you have multiple repos on the same computer:

```bash theme={null}
gpr setup ~/code/repo-a
gpr setup ~/code/repo-b
```

Each workspace has its own bound directory and agent defaults. The same daemon process serves the machine.

## Several machines

Pair each computer separately from the app (scan a QR per `gpr setup`). Assign tasks to the workspace that has the right repo and tools.

Examples:

* Laptop for app code
* Desktop for heavier builds
* Always-on home server for long jobs

## Affinity rules

* A running task is pinned to one workspace / daemon.
* Do not start a second host against the same task expecting it to continue.
* If you replace a machine, finish or rerun tasks on the new workspace explicitly.

## Keep hosts healthy

On each machine:

```bash theme={null}
gpr doctor
gpr status
gpr update
```

`gpr update` downloads the latest released daemon binary.

## Concurrent tasks

Workspaces default to `max_concurrent_tasks = 1`. Raise it in workspace settings only if the machine can handle multiple agent processes and worktrees at once.
