lopes_andre Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Hi, I need to import a TXT file with INSERT's to a PostgreSQL Database, using the command "psql ...". But I need to do this in background, there is any way of doing this that the process will continue if I close the SSH client?

trq Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 You'll want to take a look at the 'screen' command. You basically enter a screen # screen which will create a screen session and give you a prompt, you can then do whatever you like. To detach from the session hit Ctrl-d Ctrl-a, this will take you back to where you where before you entered the screen session. You can then exit from the shell. At any time come back, and type... # screen -d -r to re-attach to your session.
