I need to run an application with krenew, but the application also needs to receive a parameter via command line and I need to send its output to a file. From the documentation, it looks like this should do the trick:

krenew -t -- sh -c 'compute-job > /afs/local/data/output'

but, unfortunately, when I run the command below:

krenew -s -- sh -c './my_app config.xml > results/test.txt &'

the application just dies after a while and I can see from the output of ps aux that krenew is not running along with my_app. I am not sure what the parameter -t does, and as far as I can see, if I run krenew -s ./my_app, it works properly.

I hope someone can clarify this.
