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,
