Another tool that might solve your backgrounding issues would be to have a look at Rundeck. Since it's a standalone process that can execute long running executions, it might be an option.

Hi Dhanasekaran,
First of all, the purpose of a list is to address everyone on that
list (for instance, in case of a question). Directly addressing people
while also including a list will be frowned upon by some people.
Second, as the FAQ(1) already explains, fabric will spawn a shell to
run your command, and it's this shell that is preventing you from
backgrounding the application. Looking at the possible solutions for
this, you might want to try one of the following:
* Run the program under nohup and redirect stdin, stdout and stderr to
/dev/null
* Use tmux, screen or dtach to fully detach the process from the
running shell
Depending on what /home/sysops/sarexecute.sh exactly does, it might be
worthwile to turn it into a 'proper' unix service, allowing you to run
something like '/etc/init.d/sarexecute start'.
Please try out these options and let us know the results.
gr, Lex
