### Adding Local Workers
![Clipboard Image (4)](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9c1d6d0e-3fd1-43e3-97c4-7c6bf2952b19)
![Distributed GPU Panel](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9c1d6d0e-3fd1-43e3-97c4-7c6bf2952b19)
*The Distributed GPU panel can be found in the sidebar on the left.*
1. **Open** the Distributed GPU panel (sidebar on the left)
2. **Click** "Add Worker" in the UI
3. **Configure** your worker:
- **Name**: Descriptive name for the worker
- **Host**: `localhost` for same machine
- **Port**: Unique port number (e.g., 8189, 8190...)
- **CUDA Device**: GPU index from `nvidia-smi`
- **Extra Args**: Optional ComfyUI arguments
4. **Save** and optionally launch the worker
1. **Open** the Distributed GPU panel.
2. **Click** "Add Worker" in the UI.
3. **Configure** your local worker:
- **Name**: A descriptive name for the worker (e.g., "My Gaming PC GPU 0")
- **Port**: A unique port number for this worker (e.g., 8189, 8190...).
- **CUDA Device**: The GPU index from `nvidia-smi` (e.g., 0, 1).
- **Extra Args**: Optional ComfyUI arguments for this specific worker.
4. **Save** and optionally launch the local worker.
### Adding Remote Workers
1. **Follow** the same steps as above, but:
2. **Add** `--listen` to the 'Extra Args' field ⚠️ **Required!**
3. **Open** the worker port in your firewall
4. **Launch** ComfyUI on the remote machine
5. **Add** the worker using the remote machine's IP address
> **Tip**: If the remote machine has multiple GPUs, create multiple workers with different CUDA devices and ports
1. **On the Remote Worker Machine:**
- **Launch** ComfyUI with the `--listen` argument. ⚠️ **Required!**
- **Add** workers in the UI panel if the remote machine has more than one GPU.
- Make sure that they also have `--listen` set in `Extra Args`.
- Then launch them.
- **Open** the configured worker port(s) (e.g., 8189, 8190) in the remote worker's firewall.
2. **On the Main Machine:**
- **Open** the Distributed GPU panel (sidebar on the left).
- **Click** "Add Worker."
- **Enable** "Remote Worker" checkbox.
- **Configure** your remote worker:
- **Name**: A descriptive name for the worker (e.g., "Server Rack GPU 0")
- **Host**: The remote worker's IP address.
- **Port**: The port number used when launching ComfyUI on the remote worker (e.g., 8189).
- **Save** the remote worker configuration.
