Splunk fsck behaviour after SSH timeout

If I run the following command on an indexer after stopping Splunk and my session on the terminal times out after few hours but before the process finishes, does the repair process continues to run or will it stop ?

If it continues to run, will the result be saved in some log file? if yes, which one ?

 

 

splunk fsck repair --all-buckets-all-indexes

I'm not 100% sure if it stops (I suppose so) or continue, but you can start e.g. screen (or tux or other equivalent) session on that machine and then run that command inside screen. Then the session shouldn't stop. Anyhow you should found something from internal logs. I'm not sure if it's in splunkd.log or some other?
