h2. Start a Job without a queue
All process started from ssh are terminated when you close the ssh connection, even if you fork them
(./app &). They are closed because when a process is closed the system send the SIGTERM signal
to all its children, it’s done to avoid zombies process on a machine. To keep your task alive when
you disconnect from ssh, you should use screen ("tutorial":http://www.rackaid.com/blog/linux-screen-tutorial-and-how-to/), it will block the SIGTERM signal. To
start your application with screen:
<pre><code class="bash">
screen # to start screen
./your_app #to start your application or any other command
#type ’ Ctrl-A’ d to leave screen with your application running in background
</code></pre>
To reconnect to your previous session:
<pre><code class="bash">
screen -ls # to list running sessions
screen -r 33287.pts-36.bender # to reconnect to 33287.pts-36.bender session
exit # to close your screen session
</code></pre>
