  • Procedure for System Administrators

    This node includes monitoring information for processing of normal
    requests. These are requests sent to devices assigned to a spool
    server.
    STYLE S_DOCUS1
    For classification of output requests, we recommend that you assign the
    spool servers and the output devices to different classes. By using
    different spool servers that process requests of different types (and
    priorities), you can avoid - or at least control - a mutual obstruction
    of output requests.
