The server1 application server java process ends when the terminal window from which it was started exits
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
When you set the DISPLAY environment variable to a graphical interface and start the server1 application server from a terminal window, the java process ends when you exit the terminal window. This didn't happen for the Portal Server appserver java process.
 
Resolving the problem
On SuSe Linux (SLES 8), after running the startserver script from a X-window session, if you exit from that window, the server1 java process also exits.
To resolve this problem, run the startserver.sh script with the nohup command. For example: nohup $WAS_HOME/bin/startServer.sh server1

This command prevents the processes started from the terminal session from receiving a hangup signal from the terminal when it exits, allowing the processes to continue even after the terminal session has ended.
