Changing the default in the z/OS® shell

If you change the setting to +m, background jobs end when you exit the shell. If you have changed the setting to +m and you want to start a long-running command and have it continue running after you exit the shell, use the nohup command and an ampersand (&):

nohup 'command-line' &

For example:

nohup sort -u file1 >output 2>>outerr &
