That makes sense to me. I just don't know why I didn't receive Bobby's email in 
this thread.

Pauley. 
If that helps :  I use supervisord not only for Storm but also for other 
solutions within the ecosystem.

Java by default also tries to keep running if something unexpected happens.  If 
an exception is not caught and goes all the way up the stack, that thread will 
just print out a stack trace to stderr and then quietly stop running.  Do you 
know how many zombie daemons I have had to debug/fix because something slightly 
unexpected happened on a critical thread.  I personally added in a generic 
uncaught exception handler to all of the Hadoop daemons years ago because it 
was happening all of the time in the early days of YARN.  Storm is almost 100% 
immune to those situations, and has been since the beginning.
That is not to say that storm is not stable.  On most of our clusters the only 
time nimbus or a supervisor goes down is when we upgrade it.  We have had 
daemons running for months.  And if they do go down they typically recover in a 
few seconds, and my team gets an alert so we can debug what happened.  Running 
storm (and I would argue any critical daemon) under supervision for production 
environments is just a best practice. 
For debugging/testing something then go ahead and use nohup.

thanks for all the responses. screen and nohup seem easy to adopt. 
I guess for something intended to run on large clusters I'm surprised at the 
default behavior of storm. It seems quite the opposite of what I would've 
guessed. 
I also have a Heron instance running in similar fashion and it's default 
behavior is to keep running which seems more what I expected.

Try adding nohup at the beginning of each of those commands.  Nohup prevents a 
process from terminating when it's parent shell is closed.
nohup /opt/storm/apache*/bin/ storm nimbus &

Hi,
Storm docs recommend to use daemontools or monit which provides error recovery 
and etc.. 
I use linux "nohup" or "screen" command for simplicity.

this seems silly but I have not figured out how to keep nimbus, supervisor 
running after console session ends. zookeeper survives but supervisor and 
nimbus shut down when the console session ends.
I have storm 1.0.2 installed under /opt/storm and starting up 
as:/opt/storm/apache*/bin/storm nimbus&/opt/storm/apache*/bin/storm supervisor&
/opt/storm/apache*/bin/storm ui&
/opt/storm/apache*/bin/storm drpc&

I know I can add a while loop to keep the console active but there has to be a 
better way
