Nohup command
Purpose: To run the command without hanging off.
Syntax: Nohup Command [Arg ...] [&]
Description: The nohup command runs commands specified by the command parameter and any related ARG parameters, ignoring all hang-up (SIGHUP) signals. Use the Nohup command to run a program in the background after logging off. To run the Nohup command in the background, add & (the symbol representing "and") to the end of the command.
The output is appended to the Nohup.out file in the current directory, regardless of whether the output of the Nohup command is redirected to the terminal. If the nohup.out file for the current directory is not writable, the output is redirected to the $HOME/nohup.out file. If no file can be created or opened for appending, then the command specified by the commands parameter is not callable. If the standard error is a terminal, then all output of the specified command to the standard error is redirected to the same file descriptor as the standard output.
Example:
Nohup python test.py &
To view the daemon process
PS grep xxx
Kill process
Kill 9 xxxxx
"Linux" Nohup running daemons
