7.1.7 Installing the Print Server on Multiple File Servers

To install the print server on more than one file server, perform the procedures described in section 7.1.1 through section 7.1.6 for each file server. You must use the same name and password for the print server (or no password) on all file servers. You set the password for the Network Card using the MAP program (refer to section 7.4 on page 112). If you use a password, specify it on each file server using theChange Password option on the Print Server Information menu of the PCONSOLE utility.

When the Network Card comes up, it automatically searches for and attaches to the file servers that are no more than four hops and have no more than eight ticks propagation delay. For extremely large or complex networks, this allows a bounded search time on start-up. If the print server must attach to file servers beyond this range, or, if you wish to accelerate start-up by eliminating the need to search all file servers in the four hops/eight ticks radius, the file servers with which the print server is to operate may be entered into the Print Server Configuration of aprimary file server. The primary file server can be any file server within the four hops/eight ticks propagation time limits, but ideally is as close as possible to the print server. Once the print server locates the primary file server and the list of file servers to be serviced, the automatic search is dropped and the print server will go directly to those file servers listed (and to no others).

7.1.8 Primary File Server

To use the primary file server option, use the following procedure on a file server close to the printer:

1.List the file servers to be serviced by the primary file server by selecting File Server To Be Serviced option from the Print Server Configuration Menu.

2.Press the INSERT key to display the Available File Servers list.

3.Select the name of each file server to be serviced and press the ENTER key to add it to the File Servers To Be Serviced list.

4.When the list is complete, press the ESC key to return to the menu.

5.Install the Network Card on each of the primary file servers.
