I'm running multiple csh scripts in parallel (each script takes 2 arguments) that does a lots of funny stuff in the background (details are not important to my problem). So far I'm running them as:
my_script arg1 arg2 &
my_script arg3 arg4 &
...
This works just fine but I would like that each run of the script to redirect it's standard output into a log file. If I do the following command works well:
my_script arg1 arg2 >! somefile.log
The problem is that I need to run at least 5 of these scripts in parallel (background each of them). When I try the following sequence, the jobs are dispatched but is reported as "Suspended (tty output)" and the log file is not updating:
my_script arg1 arg2 >! somefile.log &
my_script arg3 arg4 >! somefile1.log &
my_script arg5 arg6 >! somefile2.log &
....
Any ideas to this issue. Oh...also I forgot to mention that I need to use CSH unfortunatelly I can't switch to bash or anything else.
Many thanks!
Please try
nohup my_script arg1 arg2 < /dev/null >! somefile.log &
You can also try
