Thanks Mark, Folks
Ctrl(^)Z is NOT RETURNING CONTROL BACK TO SHELL PROMPT. Any Advice on this please?
Also any Parameters for Speeding UP the CSScan as DB Size is 3 TB?
Am using PROCESS=32, ARRAY=10MB
Should Array Value be Further increased?
Usually Each of the 32 Scanning processes take up only 1 % CPU adding to approz 32% CPU Consumed.
M/c Config:-
8 CPUS 32 GB RAM Cheers

Try the following:
$ nohup csscan <all your options except for username/password go here>
Do NOT put an & at the end of the line.
Now, all terminal output is being redirected to nohup.out, so, you can't
see it, but it's waiting for a username input. Type:
/ as sysdba
Now, again, you see no prompt, but it's waiting for password input. Just
hit return.
Now, csscan should be running, in the foreground, and all terminal
output is redirecting to nohup.out.
Hit Ctrl-Z, and when you see a shell prompt, type 'bg'.
Make *sure* you type the 'bg' at the shell after the Ctrl-Z, or the
process will remain suspended and will NOT do anything.
Now, since you ran with nohup, if you log out, or if your session is
disconnected, the csscan will not catch a SIGHUP, and will continue
running. For any output that would normally go to the terminal, see the
nohup.out file.
Hope that helps,
-Mark
