Managing print jobs

Selecting a print job

The permanent job identifier

The permanent job identifier is usable in the same way as the local job id in the

PRISMAnet domain.

A new key has been integrated in the job structure to garantee the permanence

of the job identifier, which means it will never be assigned to another job.

The permanent job identifier format is: H@C@L

Where

H:is the client host name to make the permanent id single in a domain.

@:is the first separator character.

C:is a counter of 10 digits (it will never be reset).

@:is the second separator character.

L:is the local job id.

It will be possible to select a job with a permanent job id in the following commands:

-xpchange

-xpdel

-xpmod

-xpshow

-xpstat

When a job is submitted, Xprint V7.0 displays the permanent-id or the local job id if the value of the extended option of xpadd or whether the environment variable "XP_SHOW_PERMANENT_ID" is set to "1".

Example:

#xpadd -de device -dr filename -ex "XP_SHOW_PERMANENT_ID=1" XP000002: Job <d241s081@0000000245@1> (<d241s081:8>) added

Or

#XP_SHOW_PERMANENT_ID=1

#export XP_SHOW_PERMANENT_ID

#xpadd -de device -dr filename
