If you want to start a process via STAF and not wait for it to complete,
one way to do this is to not specify the WAIT option in the START request
you send to the PROCESS service. The default is to start the process
asynchronously and that the START request will then return to the caller
as soon as the process has begun execution. In this case, the process
termination will be saved after the process ends, and will later need to
be FREE'd.
This is documentated in section "8.13 Process Service", sub-section
"8.13.2 START" in the STAF User's Guide at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFUG.htm#HDRPROCSRV.

Subject: [staf-users] STAF on remote machine running as background
Hi All,
I am running following staf command in perl program.
It copies files on remote host from one location to other directory
location as below.
#############
1 my $cmdremote200 = "\"staf\" \"machine1567\" \"process\"
\"start\" \"wait\" \"shell\" \"command\" \"robocopy\" \"/S\"
\"c:temp\logs\" \"c:\results\" \"MIR\" ";
2 system($cmdremote200);
3 print "Command executed\n $cmdremote200 \n";
##############
In line 2 command is executed on remote host "machine1567" and stays there
until, it is completed but I want this to happen in background on remote
host. And return to execute line 3 immediately after starting robocopy
command on remote host.
Tried using
system 1, "$cmdremote200";
but doesn't work as there are many arguments in "$cmdremote200" variable.
If any of you know any solution to the above problem please respond to
this thread.
Thanks in advance,
Yohan
