administrator should create this configuration file with the necessary command
lines. If jobqueue.cfg file already exists in the system directory then the FaxPress
administrator should edit this file to make sure that command lines relevant to the
Drop Directory process are included in the file.
The jobqueue.cfg configuration file consists of ASCII lines, which identify the
FaxPress drop directories and the FaxPress users associated with the jobs
processed through the drop directories. Each line of a jobqueue.cfg file contains
one configuration directive.
This configuration directive starts with a directive keyword and ends with an
ASCII line-feed (0x0A character. When parameters are included in a directive
line, the parameter text follows and are separated from the keyword by blanks.
The
jobqueue.cfg
directives are:
INTERVAL seconds -
specifies the minimum number of seconds
between searches of drop directories - the default is the minimum, 10
seconds.
Example: INTERVAL 120
DIRECTORY name extension
- specifies the name of the drop direc-
tory the FaxPress is to periodically search for job control files, and also
specifies the extension (
.dir
) used to distinguish a control file in this
directory.
Example: DIRECTORY HPFSCAN.HPF and DIRECTORY.DIR
USER username
- specifies the login name of the FaxPress user to be
assigned jobs originating from the drop directories.
Example: USER SCANNER
DIRECTORY DROPDIR1 CTL
DIRECTORY DROPDIR2 CTL
PRIORITY ordinal
- specifies an ordering value from 1 to 9999 with
which drop directories searches will be ordered. Directories are
searched in the increasing order of their priority values. Directories
with the same priority ordinal are searched in rotation (round robin).
Directories with no priority value are searched strictly in order of their
appearance within the configuration file.
