Hi, I'm using SGE v8.1.9 on RHEL6.8 . In my script that I submit via qsub (let's call it scriptA), I have a gxmessage (gxmessage is similar to xmessage, postnote, etc) statement which pops up a small status window notifying the user of the results of the qsub job. However, I don't want the gxmessage to exit when scriptA terminates. So far, I have not figured out a what to satisfy my wants. That is, when scriptA terminates, so does gxmessage. nohup does not help because gxmessage gets a SIGKILL.
Is it a "feature" of SGE to ensure all child processes are dead when the qsub job terminates? Is there a way I can allow scriptA to terminate but leave behind a child process on a qhost? I have a workaround for this issue, but at this point I really want to understand what SGE is doing and if there are better solutions than what I have in mind for my workaround. Thanks, -- Mun
