3.4.2.8 Local Xprint administrator
This kind of user is called a "subroot" user by Xprint.
You can declare subroot users on a host when you create this host, or by modifying an existent host,
with the " -sr" option.
For instance, if you want that the user "usname" becomes subroot on host "OSL" you can type
"xpmod -hos OSL -sr usname".
3.4.2.9 Maximum number of devices per supervisor / servers objects
The old settings are described in chapter 5.4.3 in the XPRINT User's and Administrator's Guide.
For Xprint 8.0B10 are new default settings introduced.
These defaults settings can be changed by means of 2 environment variables:
1. XP_SPV_BY_DFTSRV
.
Description: maximum number of supervisors by default server
Initialisation time: before xpadd -dev
Possible values: from 1 to 20
Behaviour if unspecified: 20 is used
Behaviour if a value larger than
20 is specified
20 is used
2. XP_DEV_BY_DFTSPV
.
Description: maximum number of device by default superviso
Initialisation time: before xpadd -dev
Possible values: from 1 to 50
Behaviour if unspecified: 50 is used
Behaviour if a value larger than
50 is specified
50 is used
However, it is not recommended to associate more than 30 printers to a single supervisor, and more than 15
supervisors to a single server. The quantity of objects is also related to their usage model.
For example, you will not associate so many production devices to a supervisor than desktop printers.
