1 The host software interfaces with the native Unix spooler to allow the workstation to use its own printing resources.

2 Spooler arranged in double layer can save space.

3 These jobs are then sent to the spooler.

4 Windows can't open Add Printer. The local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine.

5 As multiple people submit print jobs,(www.Sentencedict.com) the spooler stores the job to disk.

6 Single threading the requests through the job spooler eliminates the problem of duplicating physical or virtual resource assignments that can occur if multiple requests are processed simultaneously.

7 A simple example of using the AIX job spooler for executing batch jobs is shown below.

8 If you choose to enable the AIX job spooler, be aware that any user on the system will be able to submit processes to the job spooler.

9 Submitting a job to the job spooler queue and to the at job scheduler simultaneously requires a compound command.

10 Once the printer is unused, the spooler can send the job to the printer without fear of contention from other print jobs.

11 Since the jobs are queued on the spooler, as soon as one job completes, the next job starts.

12 This article walks through AIX's spooler back-end programs such as piomkpq, piolsvp, lsvirprt, chvirprt, and rmvirprt.

13 To check on the activity of the spooler and jobs, check the log file .ncftp/spool/log.

14 The IBM AIX job spooler is a very useful built-in utility on all AIX systems but is rarely enabled or utilized.

15 Jobs that require sequential processing can be submitted to the job spooler through cron by running each job one minute apart.

16 Back-up processing jobs should be scheduled some time after all overnight processing jobs so they are the last job in the spooler queue.

17 Even though printers can be attached to the network, a server is usually used as the spooler, which in turn prints to the printer over the network.

18 When multiple clients have the same printer configured, they generally do so through a service called a spooler.

19 They can schedule the jobs to run at any time, as long as they send them to the job spooler, which will single thread each job through the spooler.

20 If system resources are available, additional job spools can be created to allow multiple jobs to be processed simultaneously through the spooler.

21 These queued requests are then processed one at a time by the job spooler.

22 Again, when scheduling non-sequential batch jobs, they can all be scheduled at 23:00 because they will be queued one at a time though the job spooler.
