Infinite loop query

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

I have a script

script.sh

which is scheduled to run at 11 AM everyday.

 
# script.sh Code:
./scb_script.sh &

unfortunately scb_script.sh is running today in infinite loop as respective files are not available.
My question, when script.sh starts running tomorrow, will the old process be overwritten or a new process will be start.
As i dont have proper privileges on server, i couldn't check the processes using ps -f.
plz clarify.

A new process will start.

With an infinite loop, it will run until it is ended (from external, or if you have a failsafe-exit/break).
Without knowing the content of scb_script.sh, we cannot even guess what might be the cause or solution.
