Sometimes you will need to run a long process within an ssh session, and you cannot do that regarding the “Write Failed: broken pipe” error, when you are pushed out.

You have two ways to get rid of that:

• Set a ServerAliveInterval:

Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received from the server, ssh will send a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the server, so you won’t be pushed out.

• Daemonize the process:

nohup creates a daemon and detach the process completely from the terminal.
