How to detach a long-run processes from cfengine???

[Guolin Cheng]

Hi,

  Just got a problem: How to detach a program from cfengine?  The program is called from “shellcommands” section and will run as long as one hour, I would like it to be detached from the main cfagent process just after it is called? If it possible?

  I tried the following rules but it failed, cfagent still wait there until the called program to die.

…..

   Shellcommands:

        Linux::

                “/someAbsoluteDir/Long_run_jobs.sh  </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &”

 ……

Any suggestions?

 Thanks a lot.
