7.8 Setting Up Clusterwide Generic Print Queues
The clusterwide queue database enables you to establish generic queues that
function throughout the cluster. Jobs queued to clusterwide generic queues are
placed in any assigned print queue that is available, regardless of its location
in the cluster. However, the file queued for printing must be accessible to the
computer to which the printer is connected.
7.8.1 Sample Configuration
Figure 7–3 illustrates a clusterwide generic print queue in which the queues
for all LPA0 printers in the cluster are assigned to a clusterwide generic queue
named SYS$PRINT.
A clusterwide generic print queue needs to be initialized and started only
once. The most efficient way to start your queues is to create a common
command procedure that is executed by each OpenVMS Cluster computer
(see Section 7.12.3).
