I don't use nohup. I got tired of nohup.out files all over the place! I have a number of AIX clients setup this way: In /etc/inittab, this one line:
dsmc:2:once:/etc/rc.dsmc >/dev/null 2>&1 #Start scheduler This starts on each reboot. Contents of /etc/rc.dsmc: #!/usr/bin/ksh # Start DSMC Scheduler /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmc sched & This both starts scheduler on reboot and enables me to kill scheduler, make changes to dsm.sys or whatever and then restart manually with: /etc/rc.dsmc and then logout and it keeps running. David Longo >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/28/02 09:38AM >>> Anybody, I am trying to get the scheduler service to run in the background and to continue running after a logout. My TSM server is ver. 4.1.4.1 and AIX 4.3.3, my tsm b-a client is 4.1.4 on a Unix Tru64 OS. I was using the 'Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX - Using the Backup-Archive Clients', in chapter 5 'Automating TSM Tasks.' In the chapter it details using the following statement 'nohup dsmc schedule 2> /dev/null &'. However, it only continues to run while I am logged in, if I log out and log back in, the process can not be found. Our software vendor affirmed that he could get other processes to run after a logout, but could not get the dsmc schedule process to run after a logout. It is probably obvious I am not a Unix guru so any help would be very appreciated.
