On a VAXcluster system, you can configure the applications ports on the local node
only. However, you should do so on at least two nodes so that a redundant path to the
printer is available in the event of a cluster node failure.
To set up a remote-printer applications port on a cluster node, include the LAT control
program CREATE PORT and SET PORT commands for that port in the node’s
LTLOAD.COM file in the SYS$MANAGER directory. For complete information
about setting up remote printing on VAXcluster systems, refer to the VMS VAXcluster
manual in the OpenVMS documentation set.
Setting Up a LAT Remote Print Queue on an ULTRIX System
To set up a LAT remote print queue on an ULTRIX host, specify the access server
name and the port name by using one of the following:
•
An lcp command
•
An entry in the /etc/printcap file
After you specify the access server name and the port name, set up a spool directory
and test the printer.
Example: Configuring a LAT Remote Print Queue on an ULTRIX System
The following example provides a sample procedure for setting up a remote print
queue for a laser printer. This example identifies the access server and port names to
the with the /etc/printcap file.
