Forking a bunch of processes and filling up the process table
I have a bash script that has been used for months here at work for doing an SSH into other machines both Linux and Solaris and running a script on the remote machine. Recently I have started to noticed that things are being left being on the maching doing the SSH.
For example....
Code :

I have no idea why these are being left out here like they are.
Here is the code for it all...
Code :
#!/bin/sh

# This script is fired from the dba_filesystem_guard trigger from within Ominbus on bluezebra.
# The script first pings the target server. If the ping works it then remotes to the system
# with ssh or rsh and then executes the script named (servername)fire.sh on each machine which in return fires specific
# scripts to monitor the file systems for the DBA's.

Does anyone see something I am doing wrong as to why these would hang only once in a while? And that is the key word here... Once in a while. Most of the time this works perfectly. I am not sure if this is taking place because it can not reach the remote server or what. If that is the case is there a way to time out on each one or something?
Is this taking place because its waiting for the child to finish and its not? If so how can I just SSH, tell it to run the remote script and move on without waiting?
Thank you for the help
