amazon web services - Will aws s3 sync stops if I close down the shell from where it runs

Question

• running aws s3 sync s3://bucket_a s3://bucket_b
• running it from my machine's iterm shell console
• bucket_A size is 1.5TB
• iterm is having high mem pressure
• because of this I'm unable to keep using my laptop

question: if I close my CLI window - this is, without sending ctrl-c to the command - will the sync process stops?

To me, the aws s3 sync instruction has already been received by aws, so it shouldn't harm...

question from:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66064447/will-aws-s3-sync-stops-if-i-close-down-the-shell-from-where-it-runs

Answer 1

So, just for every other person running the same question, the response is: no, the process does not end if the shell window is closed.
