在Linux中将Java进程作为后台进程运行

Question

I am running my project as jar using java -jar command in Linux machine. As soon as this program run , It produces logs in another directory. Running my program this way requires me to keep the shell open. Now If I have to see the logs , I can't do that in the same shell. I am forced to do that by either doing the duplicate session or new session. Is there any way I can run the jar as background process and see the logs in the same shell ?

If you don't care about it staying alive, something as simple as nohup java -jar myjar.jar & should work. If you need it to be automatically restarted if it crashes or start automatically at boot, you'll want to look into something like systemd or monit.
