EXTRA - SCREEN
SCREEN:
install:
root@aix41: /mnt/LinuxToolbox_2007_11/RPMS/ppc # ls -l screen*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 282095 Jul 28 21:46 screen-3.9.10-2.aix4.3.ppc.rpm
(check, you have enough free space in /opt, the tool needs about 0,5MB)
# rpm -Uv screen-3.9.10-2.aix4.3.ppc.rpm
------------------------------
Resume session after lost connection:
screen <--starting screen session (push space or enter to agree the licence)
start a long running process
ctrl-a + d <--this will detach your screen seesion (you can logout, but processes are still running)
screen -list <--lists the opened screen sessions
root@aix31: / # screen -list
There is a screen on:
479332.pts-0.aix31 (Detached) <--if you see detached: screen -r will resume earlier session and that's it.
1 Socket in /tmp/screens/S-root
screen -r <--it will continue the detached session
if there are more detached session, you have to spceify which session to continue:
screen -r 479332.pts-0.aix31 <--it will continue the detached session
--------------------
if you see attached:
root@aix31: / # screen -list
There is a screen on:
479332.pts-0.aix31 (Attached) <--if you see attached first it should be detached then screen -r
1 Socket in /tmp/screens/S-root.
screen -D or screen -D 479332.pts-0.aix31 <--this will detach the screen
------------------------------
Seeing the same session:
1. screen starts using this utility (push space or enter to agree the licence)
2. login in another window (putty)
3. screen -x attaching to the already opened screen (with this you can see the same session)
4. exit terminating from screen (you will see this:screen is terminating)
