hi guys,
I have a requirement to run a script 4 times with different parameter values.
the 4 jobs have to run parallely which actually access different data of same table and deletes.

how can i achieve this.................?

Thanks in advance

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
myfile.sh  parm1 parm2 &
myfile.sh  parm3 parm4 &
myfile.sh  parm5 parm6 &
myfile.sh  parm7 parm8 &
wait

This runs the scripts in parallel. If you want them run sequentially, remove the "&" and the wait statement.
