Hiya,
Recently I've run a few scripts in the foreground, but have realised later they should of been better nohup'd and placed in the background. I understand how to change a foreground job into a background one, but how would put the job into the nohup state?
Thanks (1 Reply)

Hello,
I am running a shell script whose execution often takes several hours to complete. Is there way I can get some kind of status update as the job is running? Something as simple as the start and the current time stamp.

Is there a way to suspend (TSTP?) a job that is running in the background, _without_ first bringing it to the foreground and inputting Ctrl-Z from the keyboard?

kill
KILL(1) General Commands Manual KILL(1)NAME
kill, broke - print commands to kill processes
SYNOPSIS
kill name
broke
DESCRIPTION
Kill prints commands that will cause all processes called name and owned by the current user to be terminated. Use the send command of
81/2(1), or pipe the output of kill into rc(1) to execute the commands.
Kill suggests sending a kill note to the process; the same message delivered to the process's ctl file (see proc(3)) is a surer, if heavy
handed, kill, but is necessary if the offending process is ignoring notes.
Broke prints commands that will cause all processes in the Broken state and owned by the current user to go away. When a process dies
because of an error caught by the system, it may linger in the Broken state to allow examination with a debugger. Executing the commands
printed by broke lets the system reclaim the resources used by the broken processes.
