copied!<p>I'm trying to do something like the following. Right now, I connect via ssh to a remote machine and run my analysis with nohup command as</p> <pre><code>nohup matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay < mycode.m > output.txt 2>&1 & </code></pre> <p>Now I want to write a script that runs in background several nohup commands one after the other one. I managed to do</p> <pre><code>#!/bin/bash matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay -r "mycode;quit;" > output.txt </code></pre> <p>But not only the code works with one CPU only, but also it goes in an infinite loop and never finishes the job.</p> <p>I can I solve that? It is important that I could close the terminal after launching the script.sh</p> <p>EDIT: Thanks to you I manage to do and let the following thing to work well</p> <pre><code>ssh user@ipaddress screen cd folder1/ nohup matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay < mycode.m > output.txt 2>&1 & exit screen cd folder2/ nohup matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay < mycode.m > output.txt 2>&1 & exit </code></pre> <p>Now is it possible to do a script of that? Because I noticed that any time I type <code>screen</code> I have to press Enter right after.</p> <p>EDIT2: @Peter I did what you suggested</p> <pre><code>#!/bin/bash cd folder1/ matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay -r "mycode;quit;" < /dev/null > output.txt cd folder2/ matlab -nodesktop -nodisplay -r "mycode;quit;" < /dev/null > output.txt </code></pre> <p>But only the first matlab runs, how is it possible?</p>
