Re: Printer Qeues
I have put the results as Mobeen was asking in a zipped attachment in my previous response. It has 3 text files.
Regarding the specific commands
My objective was to change the order of execution queues
(SC4238_FAST,SALSA_FAST) was the order where SC4238 is the node name for Server node so
I did the following
$stop /que /reset SYS$FAST where SYS$FAST is the generic que (details in my TXT attachment)
$init /que /batch /start /generic=(SALSA_FAST,SC4238_FAST)
I did not touch the printer que HPLJET_PS
Normally we have an "Evaluation application" which sends the job to SYS$FAST and gets assigned to respective exec queues. Once the evaluation is done, the application(I think) automatically starts a print queue.
Now there are two different problems here (could have one solution though).
1st Due to the above (stop and init que changes) I did after the evaluation is done by SYS$FAST que there is no printing que started.
2nd Before I did any changes (the way the things normally are at startup) often after the evaluation is completed the printer queue started stays pending and the no of printer entries just keep building up. So finally we reboot the whole system and things get back to normal.
Please let me know for which problem you are suggesting an explanation. If you need more info please let me know

Re: Printer Qeues
Sorry, I had not read the ZIPs before (blocked by policy).
Now, at home, I have seen them.
I notice HPLJET_PS being generic, and it has an execution que HPLJET.
_THAT_ is the print execution queue, Can you post what _THAT_ looks like?
From what I have seen so far, I would guess that THERE is your trouble somehow.
Please post the outpot of
$ SHOW QUEU HPLJET /FUL/ALL.
(if you make that a simple text file (extension .TXT), then I am sure it will come through).
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Printer Qeues
I don't understand why you are using a generic queue. Why aren't you printing directly using TCPIP$TELNETSYM ?
Using /AUTOSTART_ON=(node1,node2,node3) you can make sure this queue is always running in the cluster.
But anyway, the queue can be stopped because possible you are using the wrong processor. '/PROCESSOR=TCPIP$TELNETSYM' on the execution queue .
If there are more systems printing to this printer, the printer will be stalled until the other system gives the printer 'back' or 'releases the printer' for other jobs.
A printer can only get information from one system at once. If eg windows is printing to this printer and doesn't free the printer, the printer stays connected to windows and no other system (even VMS) can print until this is done. Even so for VMS. If VMS is printing to the printer and doesn't free the printer after the job no other system can print to this printer. This was in the time from TTA to LTA most of the time the problem. The PROCESSOR could be the same, but never released.

Re: Printer Qeues
to me that looks good.
I assume you CAN ping the printer?
$ TCPIP PING HLPJET
If just from the command line, you do a
$ PRINT /QUE=HPLJET
does the file get printed?
and
$ PRINT/QUE=HPLJET_PS
we WILL get it going!!
Proost.

Re: Printer Qeues
Thanks for the reply.
I can take direct printouts all the time like
$Print filename
Currently all the printing seems to be working fine.But when the problem occurs in future I intend to collect the data as
$show que /full HPLJET /out=PRINT_HPLJET_FULL_SERVER.TXT
$show que /full HPLJET_PS /out=PRINT_HPLJET_FULL_SERVER.TXT
and post it here.
For now I was able to
Ping successfully. I also tried both the commands
$Print /que=HPLJET
printed the file successfully
$Print /que=HPLJET_PS
printed a kind of Info sheet
stating the node name user account entry no. and file name
25-MAY-2005 ....%DCPS-W-UNDEF,undefined: Name not known - offending command is $
25-May.......%DCPS-E-FLUSHING, Rest of Job (to EOJ) will be ignored
Then details like
Owner UIC: [XXXX,XXX]
Account:[XXX]
Priority: 100
Submit queue:HPLJET_PS
Submitted:25-MAYXXXX
Printer queue: HPLJET
Printer device: "IP_RawTCP/hpljet:9100"
Started: 25-XXX
Finished: 25-XXX
Qualifiers: /FORM=DCPS$DEFAULT
Parameters: DATA_TYPE=POSTSCRIPT, PAGE_SIZE_A,SHEET_SIZE=A
Sheets printed: 1
So if this is normal then I will just wait for the problem to occur again and do the above mentioned commands.
If this is a problem let me know

Re: Printer Qeues
I am now entering territory that I have noe experience myself, so maybe others can supply better details, but as far as I can see now, (please correct if my view is wrong) you are (correctly printing a plain text file. But if you choose the other queue, then it it set to expect PostScript fromatted data, and it does not know what to do with other input.
If it works (correct), then just use that :-).
Proost.
