trap "" HUP v.s Nohup ? How can I run a portion of shell script in nohub mode?
- by Alex
I want to run a shell script over the weekend, but I wanna make sure if the terminal loses
the connection, my script won't be terminated. I use nohup for the whole script invokation, but I also want to execute some portion of my shell script in a way that if someone closes my terminal, my script runs on the background still. Here is a simple example :
#!/bin/bash
echo "Start the trap"
trap " " HUP
echo "Sleeping for 60 Seconds"
sleep 60 echo "I just woke up!"
Please suggest what I should do ? The trap " " HUP seems like not working when I close my
terminal tab.
