Hi. !
When I use the 'NOHUP' along with the '&', the process will be running in the background. Even when I attempt to close (Meaning 'EXIT') the session (say PUTTY in this case), it wont exit unless the process is completed.
But, say when I forcefully terminate the session (SHUT DOWN the machine). In this case, all the child processes will be terminated and the parent process will continue.
What I need is that, even though I forcefully terminate the session, I need both the CHILD and PARENT processes to run and complete successfully.
Exact Scenario: I'm running a UNIX (Parent) shell which in turn calls an ORACLE (Child) session. When I run it with �NOHUP' and �&' and terminate the session forcefully, the ORACLE session will terminate and will give to control to the UNIX session, which will run the remaining UNIX operation.
I don't want this to happen. Even though I forcefully terminate the session, I need both the ORACLE (Child) and UNIX (parent) session to run and complete normally.
Kindly advice.
Thanks,
Barani
