Hi everyone,

I'm trying to volume Mesh my project from remote using terminal comand line.
I am trying to do so from remote, but I want to make it start and then disconnect, but the terminal skips on "nohup" and "&"( not sure on the last one). Where am I mistaken in my comand line?

nohup starccm+ -batch file.java file.sim > mesh.log &

thank you in advance.

Not sure which distro you are using or the version of bash, but let me give this a try anyways.



You seem to be missing the disown command. I generically ran this sequence to verify the job kept running after logging out and back in again and verifying the PID (in this case 64279) was still present in top (for you: top -u $USER). This should work with your batch option/argument pairs as well.



[me@myhostname ~]$ nohup starccm+ -server -rsh ssh -new test.sim > testlog.log 2>&1 &

[1] 64279

[me@myhostname ~]$ disown





This use of disown marks the job such the SIGHUP signal is not sent to that job when the terminal closes. The 2>&1 adds any error messages to the output log.



Hope the helps!
