[R] R - Linux_SSH

[Jan van der Laan]

What I did in the past (not with R scripts) is to start my jobs using  
at (start the job at a specified time e.g. now) or batch (start the  
job when the cpu drops below ?%)

at now "R CMD BATCH yourscript.R"

or

batch "R CMD BATCH yourscript.R"

something like that, you'll have to look at the man pages for at  
and/or batch. You probably need something like atd running. I do not  
know if current linux distributions have that running by default.  
You'll get an email when the job is finished.
