Hi,

i have a shellscript, where in i need to connect to different server start these three jobs and exit from the server and start the same three jobs on local server.

 
ssh user@remotehost 'bash -s' << EOF
${GETT_HOME}/bin/start1 &
sleep 10
${GETT_HOME}/bin/start2 &
sleep 10
${GETT_HOME}/bin/start3 &
echo "Started on secondary"
exit
EOF

script starts the jobs correctly on remote server however it never exits, ssh hungs at the end.

Appreciate your help

ssh -f  user@remotehost "${GETT_HOME}/bin/start1 &  sleep 10; ${GETT_HOME}/bin/start2 & sleep 10; ${GETT_HOME}/bin/start3 & echo Started on secondary "
