1. The search starts with the entry /.:/Bldg/Print_queue_grp, which contains the
entry names of several server entries that advertise the Print_server interface
and the object UUID of a given Laser_printer print queue. The search begins
by randomly selecting a member name. In this instance, the search selects the
name /.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_3:
/.:/Bldg/Print_queue_grp contents:
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_3
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_7
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_9
2. The search continues with the /.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_3 entry. There, it
finds the requested Version 2.1 of the Print_server interface. However, the
search continues because the entry lacks the object UUID of the requested
Laser_printer queue:
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_3 contents:
print_server-if-uuid,2.1
binding-information
line_printer_queue-object-uuid
3. The search goes back to the previous entry, which was
/.:/Bldg/Print_queue_grp, to select another entry name; in this instance
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_9:
/.:/Bldg/Print_queue_grp contents:
/.:/Bldg/Print_server_host_3
