Cold Starting a Spooler
Note that $ZHOME is specified as the home terminal in Example 1-3. For G-series
systems, $ZHOME must be specified as the home terminal.
Cold Starting a Spooler
Coldstarting a spooler erases existing print jobs and configuration settings.
Before you cold start your spooler, you must purge all existing supervisor control files.
(See Cold Starting a Drained Spooler on page 1-8.) Any jobs waiting in the current
queue file are purged during a cold start, and users must respool these jobs after the
cold start is finished.
Following are two command files that cold start a spooler in response to a single OBEY
command. You can use these files as a model in setting up your own spooler cold-start
command files. After you have entered the following files into two separate EDIT files,
enter:
> OBEY $SYSTEM.SPLUTIL.COLDFILE
The commands contained in this file are executed. Example 1-4 on page 1-6 shows
the output of text that could appear on your home terminal:
Example 1-3. Spooler Warm Start File
comment -- This is $SYSTEM.STARTUP.SPLWARM
