Duplicate JetDirect configuration

Thierry Doppler — Mon, 11 Jul 2005 04:34:39 GMT

Hi,

I have 2 rx2620 Server with HP-UX 11.23 and "JetDirect Printer Installer for UNIX" Version E.10.34 for 2 new SAP-Installations.

I have to configure all our printers on both machines.

Is it possible to duplicate the Printer Configuration from the first to the second one ? Which files contain the printers definitions ? (hosts-files ist already duplicate)

Thanks you for your help

Thierry

Hi Thierry

/etc/lp/interface directory has printer defination files and can be moved to another server and spooler can be started

Regards
Mahesh

Using the directory area as mentioned, can make a rdist script that will run nightly to update all machines you specify.

Examples of such are attached

Hi,

there is a program called 'transferqueue' - this can backup and restore printer installations between different hosts as well.
