Starting a Schedule using OMBPlus

Question

Hi All,
I have written a OMB script which will take the mapping name as parameter and deploy the scheduled job. Then the schedule has to be started. The deployment is being done scccessfully and the schedule is also getting started. But the scripts doesnot return the prompt after execution.
If I run the command OMBSTART SCHEDULABLE <mapname> directly from OMBPlus prompt also the prompt doesnt return.
Is there any alternative way or alternate command to implement the same.
OMBCONNECT $userval/$passval@$tgthostval:$tgtportval:$tgtsrvcval USE WORKSPACE '$workspace'
OMBCONNECT CONTROL_CENTER $userval/$passval@$tgthostval:$tgtportval:$tgtsrvcval USE WORKSPACE '$workspace'
OMBCC '/'
OMBCC '$project/$module';
foreach parmvalue $argv {
OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'SCH_PLAN_$parmvalue' ADD ACTION '$parmvalue' SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION) VALUES('REPLACE')SET REFERENCE SCHEDULABLE '$parmvalue'
OMBDEPLOY DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'SCH_PLAN_$parmvalue'
OMBDROP DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'SCH_PLAN_$parmvalue'
OMBSTART SCHEDULABLE '$parmvalue'
OMBCOMMIT;
OMBDISCONNECT;
Thanks

FYI - I decided to go with a infinate while loop for the solution which seems to work pretty well so far. In order to not pin the processor I sleep th thread every second:
while (true) {
    // in milliseconds
    Thread.sleep(1000);
}This will keep the command window and program up so that I can dislay any necessary system.out/system.err messages as well as display the startup message. I am not sure, but I have to believe that there is another way to do this...
Thanks,
Nik
