Re: How to send a bhyve vm totally in background,suppressing any message produced by the bhyve script that I use.

This is how looks mine script after having applied your suggestions :

nohup /usr/bin/bhyve -S -c sockets=2,cores=2,threads=2 -m 8G -w -H -A \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s
1,virtio-blk,/mnt/zroot2/zroot2/bhyve/img/Linux/Ubuntu2310.img,bootindex=1 \
-s 11,hda,play=/dev/dsp,rec=/dev/dsp \
-s 13,virtio-net,tap19 \
-s 14,virtio-9p,sharename=/ \
-s 30,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc \
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_UEFI_CODE.fd \
vm0:19&>/dev/null

well,it does not work : the vm does not start,I don't see its process as
active.

output :

final sleep
appending output to nohup.out

root@marietto:/bhyve # ps ax | grep bhyve
20220  1  S+       0:00.00 grep bhyve
