Is there a way to append nohup output file?

  • 772

I run my script with this command

nohup python a.py > /var/log/a.log 2>&1&

This is okay but every time I run this command /var/log/a.log file is truncated. Is there a way to append this file no matter what?

    Try the below command to append the output as well as the standard error to /var/log/a.log file.

    nohup python a.py >> /var/log/a.log 2>&1&
