使用GNU Parallel http://www.gnu.org/software/parallel/，它就像:

(echo prog1; echo prog2) | parallel

或者如果你喜欢:

parallel ::: prog1 prog2

有一个非常有用的程序调用nohup。

     nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty

#!/bin/bash
prog1 & 2> .errorprog1.log; prog2 & 2> .errorprog2.log

将错误重定向到单独的日志。

你的脚本应该是这样的:

prog1 &
prog2 &
.
.
progn &
wait
progn+1 &
progn+2 &
.
.

假设你的系统一次可以处理n个任务。使用wait一次只运行n个作业。

由于某些原因，我不能使用等待，我想出了这个解决方案:

# create a hashmap of the tasks name -> its command
declare -A tasks=(
  ["Sleep 3 seconds"]="sleep 3"
  ["Check network"]="ping imdb.com"
  ["List dir"]="ls -la"
)

# execute each task in the background, redirecting their output to a custom file descriptor
fd=10
for task in "${!tasks[@]}"; do
    script="${tasks[${task}]}"
    eval "exec $fd< <(${script} 2>&1 || (echo $task failed with exit code \${?}! && touch tasks_failed))"
    ((fd+=1))
done

# print the outputs of the tasks and wait for them to finish
fd=10
for task in "${!tasks[@]}"; do
    cat <&$fd
    ((fd+=1))
done

# determine the exit status
#   by checking whether the file "tasks_failed" has been created
if [ -e tasks_failed ]; then
    echo "Task(s) failed!"
    exit 1
else
    echo "All tasks finished without an error!"
    exit 0
fi

使用bashj (https://sourceforge.net/projects/bashj/)，您不仅可以运行多个进程(其他人建议的方式)，还可以在一个JVM中运行多个线程，这些线程由您的脚本控制。当然，这需要java JDK。线程比进程消耗更少的资源。

下面是一个工作代码:

#!/usr/bin/bashj

#!java

public static int cnt=0;

private static void loop() {u.p("java says cnt= "+(cnt++));u.sleep(1.0);}

public static void startThread()
{(new Thread(() ->  {while (true) {loop();}})).start();}

#!bashj

j.startThread()

while [ j.cnt -lt 4 ]
do
  echo "bash views cnt=" j.cnt
  sleep 0.5
done
