ADM100 Lesson: Concept of Logical Spool Servers
You can maintain the spool server in transaction SPAD by choosing Spool
Servers on the Devices / Servers tab page. Important information for a spool
server:
Server Name
Name of the spool server, maximum of 20 characters long
(case-sensitive). The field below is intended for a short description.
Server Class
Classify the spool server here (for example, for mass printing).
Logical Server
Select this field when you create a logical server.
Mapping
Name of a real or logical server to which this logical server points.
Additional information is presented below.
Figure 119: Creating a Logical Server
You can define a spool server (real or logical) specifically for front end
printing by setting the profile parameter rspo/local_print/server to the
server name. If no spool server is explicitly defined in this way, the local
application server is used, if this has at least one spool work process.
Otherwise, one of the spool servers in the system defined in the system
that has a minimal load is selected for the processing.
