Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: nohup jobs
Hi,
Tx for responding.
When you submit a job in background, you get the pid value of the job
[1] 87
and when the job is completed, you get the DONE.
[1] + Done
But here even my job (rcp) is running in backgroud, why I got Done.
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas

Hi
Not a UNIX expert but I think the & at the end tells it to return the
prompt
and run in the background. Returning the prompt is an almost instant job
and
that is wath you get confirmed

Subject: nohup jobs
Hi All,
Could somebody explain me the behaviour of the following unix job:
This job is copying the files from 1 server to another server using rcp:
Syntax goes like this:
rcp -r /u02/app/applmgr/common/inst1/*
srvr2:/u02/app/applmgr/common/inst2/. &
I put this in a file and chmod it to 755 and executed it in background.
nohup file1 >file1.out &
[1] 87
in the next moment it has comeout immediately.
[1] + Done nohup file1 >file1.out &
but the rcp went fine successfully.
The question is why the job has come out stating Done eventhoug the rcp
is
running.
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas
