Full Discussion: Nohup error
Operating Systems Solaris Nohup error Post 303002826 by jlliagre on Saturday 2nd of September 2017 05:20:38 PM

Beware that the non POSIX "disown" utility is not available to the OP who is running Solaris 10. "disown" is only implemented in Solaris 11.

In any case, "disown" is not required here, being redundant. The "nohup" call is already disconnecting the launched process from the running session so there is no reason to try to do it twice.
