Does 'ssh <remote> -t <command>' has a timeout? killed by Signal 15

  • 772

I want to run a job on remote server with no login. I found that I can run my job using ssh as:

ssh remotenode -t /path/to/myjob &> /path/to/log

However, the job would be killed by Signal 15 after a while. Does SSH force some timeout?

NOTE: My jobs takes a few hours to be completed.

    If I may suggest using screen

    ssh remotenode -t "screen -S ServerFault top"

    This will start screened top process with session name 'ServerFault' . Later on you can simply re-attach this on remotenode using

    screen -r ServerFault
