Xerox D63-069-00 manual JES3 Installation, CA-Spool Customization

JES3 Installation

Note: JES3 3.1.3 supports control of up to 32 printers by a single FSS. The actual number of printers that can be active simultaneously will depend on the processor size and print workload. Multiple FSS definitions could therefore be required.

The following modifications are required to be included in the JES3 initialization deck to define an FSS system and any associated printers.

1.Generate the JES3 FSS definitions

The FSSNAME and PROC name in the following example are both assumed to be

IDAXFC.

FSSDEF,PNAME=IDAXFC,FSSNAME=IDAXFC,TYPE=WTR,SYSTEM=SYS1

Note: When more than one FSS is defined, a unique PROC name is required on each definition

2.Generate the JES3 printer definition

DEVICE,DTYPE=PRT3820,JNAME=PRT1,JUNIT=(,SYS1,,ON),

FSSNAME=IDAXFC,MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE)

Consult the relevant JES publications for further information on the above parameters.

To permit the distribution of print to a specific printer unit, a route code definition should be supplied with the printer definition. This can be performed using the ROUTCDE= statement. When a DESTID statement is also added as shown following, it is possible to directly address a specific printer with the use of the DEST parameter:

DEVICE,DTYPE=PRT3820,JNAME=PRT1,JUNIT=(,SYS1,,ON),

FSSNAME=IDAXFC,MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE),ROUTECDE=U1111

DESTID(PCPRT1) DEST=U1111

CA-Spool Customization

This procedure should only be used where the IDAXFC is to be installed under control of CA-Spool.

1.Customize the CA-Spool initialization statements to include the IDAXFC

Modification of the CA-Spool initialization statements will be required to define the idaXFC and all printers that will be defined to the idaXFC. The following example de- fines a Functional Subsystem called IDAXFC, and adds two printer definitions, for NODE printer 1 and Node printer 2.
