It's not necessary to use nohup, but it's a good idea to redirect your
standard out and standard error to a logfile when starting up. I use the
following line in my startup script called "jkup" which I placed in
/usr/local/bin:
$TOMCAT_HOME/bin/startup.sh &>/var/log/tomcat/startup.log
My logs directory in $TOMCAT_HOME is a soft link to /var/log/tomcat, where I
keep all my Tomcat related logs.
