I installed HiveMQ on my Ubuntu 16.04 server (dropped the zip file inside my server and unzip it) then I started it via terminal (with SSH connection) and I connected a client all was good. Then I closed the terminal to see if I would able to connect again and I would, I could also connect after 2 hours but suddenly I couldn't.

Is there any command to use to keep it always on?

Thanks in advance

Check this list on the HiveMQ User Guide. Starting at point 10 describes, how to run HiveMQ from a run script.

Install the init script (optional)

For Debian-based linux like Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian using init.d scripts

cp /opt/hivemq/bin/init-script/hivemq-debian /etc/init.d/hivemq
chmod +x /etc/init.d/hivemq

For Debian-based linux like Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian using systemd

cp /opt/hivemq/bin/init-script/hivemq.service /etc/systemd/system/hivemq.service

Modify /etc/init.d/hivemq (optional)

Set the HIVEMQ_HOME and the HIVEMQ_USER variable to the correct values for your system.

By default this would be:

HIVEMQ_HOME=/opt/hivemq

HIVEMQ_USER=hivemq

If you installed HiveMQ to a different directory than /opt/hivemq please point the HIVEMQ_HOME in your init script to the correct directory. Otherwise the daemon will not start correctly.

Start HiveMQ on boot (optional)

For Debian-based linux like Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian

update-rc.d hivemq defaults

For Debian-based linux like Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian using systemd

systemctl enable hivemq
