Example
Example
Assume that the \PRNT.$SPLS spooler has the following locations:
COLLECT $S
LOC #DEFAULT.PRT,DEV $LP
LOC #OFFICE.P1,DEV $LASER.#A
LOC #OFFICE.P2,DEV $LASER.#B
The following command to run RPSetup sets up the spooler on \APPN so that all
printing locations on \PRNT are also available on the \APPN spooler.
RUN RPSETUP /IN \PRNT.$SPLS, OUT \APPN.$SPLS /
RPSetup installs the devices and locations listed below in \APPN.$SPLS; this example
is illustrated in Figure 5-2, earlier in this section.
PRINT $SPLX
DEV \PRNT.$S.#XFER.THREAD01,PROCESS $SPLX
DEV \PRNT.$S.#XFER.THREAD02,PROCESS $SPLX
LOC #DEFAULT.PRT,DEV \PRNT.$S.#XFER.THREAD01
LOC #OFFICE.P1,DEV \PRNT.$S.#XFER.THREAD02
LOC #OFFICE.P2,DEV \PRNT.$S.#XFER.THREAD01
After the connections are established by RPSetup, an application on \APPN can spool
to the local $S.#DEFAULT location and reach $LP on \PRNT.
Configuring Entities in the Local Spooler
The RPSetup utility configures entities in the local spooler. All configuration
parameters have reasonable default values, but you can change the default
configuration by including the ASSIGN and PARAM commands before you run the
RPSetup utility.
Default Configuration
The default configuration is summarized in Table 5-1.
