Can I re-direct nohup to a different filename?
Hi,

I want to be able to run a script nohup & but I want the output file named like <script>.out instead of nohup.out. Is there anyway to achieve this?

At the moment, workaround is I cd to a different directory and then do nohup <script> &.

So far, I've tried below but it does not seem to work or maybe I am not doing it currently.

Code:
[user01@test01 ~]$ nohup ./x.ksh & 1>x.ksh.out 2>&1
[1] 8113
[user01@test01 ~]$ nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'

[1]+  Done                    nohup ./x.ksh
[user01@test01 ~]$ cat x.ksh.out
[user01@test01 ~]$ cat nohup.out
testing nohup.out
testing nohup.out
testing nohup.out
testing nohup.out
testing nohup.out
[user01@test01 ~]$ cat x.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
echo "testing nohup.out"
echo "testing nohup.out"
echo "testing nohup.out"
echo "testing nohup.out"
echo "testing nohup.out"
[user01@test01 ~]$

Feedback much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

nohup

NOHUP(1)                                                           User Commands                                                          NOHUP(1)

NAME

       nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty

SYNOPSIS

       nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
       nohup OPTION

DESCRIPTION

       Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       If  standard  input  is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file.  If standard output is a terminal, append output to 'nohup.out' if
       possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise.  If standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output.   To  save  output  to  FILE,  use
       'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.

       NOTE: your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes the version described here.  Please refer to your shell's doc-
       umentation for details about the options it supports.
