     	  Software   Product  Description  D  ___________________________________________________________________  D  PRODUCT NAME:  DEC Distributed Queuing Service for     SPD 28.80.03$                 OpenVMS, Version 1.3    DESCRIPTION  I  The standard OpenVMS queue system enables users to use the OpenVMS PRINT I  command to print files on output devices that are attached to the user's   local OpenVMS node.  E  The DEC Distributed Queuing Service (DQS) uses the DECnet networking G  system to extend the standard OpenVMS queue system to enable users to:   D  o  Print jobs on printers connected to systems other than their own  ,  o  Show the status of jobs on those systems  &  o  Cancel their jobs on those systems  <  o  Change the specifications of their jobs on those systems  G  Any node where a print request originates is called a client. Any node H  with an attached printer that performs the printing is called a server.I  Any node with DQS software can be configured to operate as only a client F  or as both a client and a server. The DQS software does not limit theD  number of client or server nodes or queues. The system manager cre-I  ates the queues and establishes the correspondence between client queues E  and queues on server nodes. A queue on a server node can accept jobs &  from queues on multiple client nodes.  	  Features   H  The following is a summary of features available in the DEC Distributed  Queuing Service software:  D  o  Provides an easy means of printing from systems that do not have
     printers.   D                                DIGITAL                    April 1994  D                                                          AE-KS63E-TE       F  o  The DQS software can be used in any DECnet networking environment.F     Both Local Area Networks and Wide Area Networks are supported. DQS3     supports DECnet Phase V fullname functionality.   D  o  The DQS software allows multiple OpenVMS systems to share expen-     sive or unique printers.  H  o  The DQS software does not limit the user's choice of printing equip-F     ment as it can work with standard Digital symbionts and most user-'     written or user-modified symbionts.   D  o  Provides completely transparent support for the following quali-'     fiers of the OpenVMS PRINT command:   !     /BACKUP     /BEFORE    /BURST +     /BY_OWNER   /CONFIRM   /CHARACTERISTICS "     /COPIES     /CREATED   /DEVICE      /EXCLUDE    /EXPIRED   /FEED%     /FLAG                  /JOB_COUNT                  /IDENTIFY       /LOWERCASE             /NAME                 /MODIFIED "     /NOTE       /QUEUE     /REMOTE#     /RESTART    /PAGES     /PASSALL !     /SETUP      /SINCE     /SPACE      /TRAILER    /USER   F     All other OpenVMS PRINT qualifiers are supported, with slight dif-=     ferences that reflect the distributed environment of DQS.   F  o  If the DQS server is temporarily inaccessible when a print commandI     is issued, the DQS client will attempt to transfer the job for print- 5     ing after the DQS server again becomes available.   H  o  If a printer becomes unavailable, the corresponding DQS server queueD     can be configured to direct print jobs to a different DQS server
     queue.  D  o  The DQS software can send notification to the user after a print     job has been completed.   #                                   2        E  o  Additional queues can be added and queue attributes changed with- &     out reinstalling the DQS software.  I  o  Additional DQS nodes can be added to an existing network of DQS nodes <     without reinstalling the software on the existing nodes.  B  o  The DQS software can be configured to limit access to servers.  >  o  The DQS software can be configured to keep records of use.  3  o  The DQS commands can be used on non-DQS queues.     HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS  $  Alpha AXP:  DEC 2000 Model 300S AXP  $              DEC 3000 Model 300 AXP,%              DEC 3000 Model 300L AXP, $              DEC 3000 Model 400 AXP,%              DEC 3000 Model 400S AXP, $              DEC 3000 Model 500 AXP,%              DEC 3000 Model 500S AXP, %              DEC 3000 Model 500X AXP, $              DEC 3000 Model 600 AXP,%              DEC 3000 Model 600S AXP, $              DEC 3000 Model 800 AXP,$              DEC 3000 Model 800S AXP  +              DEC 4000 Model 600 AXP Series, *              DEC 4000 Model 700 AXP Series  *              DEC 7000 Model 600 AXP Series  +              DEC 10000 Model 600 AXP Series             #                                   3          VAX Processors Supported:    VAX:      VAXft Model 110,             VAXft Model 310,             VAXft Model 410,             VAXft Model 610,             VAXft Model 612              VAX 4000 Model 100,            VAX 4000 Model 200,            VAX 4000 Model 300,            VAX 4000 Model 400,            VAX 4000 Model 500,            VAX 4000 Model 600   %            VAX 6000 Model 200 Series, %            VAX 6000 Model 300 Series, %            VAX 6000 Model 400 Series, %            VAX 6000 Model 500 Series, $            VAX 6000 Model 600 Series  $            VAX 7000 Model 600 Series  (            VAX 8200, VAX 8250, VAX 8300,(            VAX 8350, VAX 8500, VAX 8530,(            VAX 8550, VAX 8600, VAX 8650,(            VAX 8700, VAX 8800, VAX 8810,'            VAX 8820, VAX 8830, VAX 8840               VAX 9000 Model 110,            VAX 9000 Model 210,%            VAX 9000 Model 300 Series, $            VAX 9000 Model 400 Series  %            VAX 10000 Model 600 Series           #                                   4          "            VAX-11/730, VAX-11/750,!            VAX-11/780, VAX-11/785   &  MicroVAX: MicroVAX II, MicroVAX 2000,&            MicroVAX 3100 Model 10/10E,&            MicroVAX 3100 Model 20/20E,"            MicroVAX 3100 Model 30,"            MicroVAX 3100 Model 40,"            MicroVAX 3100 Model 80,"            MicroVAX 3100 Model 90,(            MicroVAX 3300, MicroVAX 3400,(            MicroVAX 3500, MicroVAX 3600,'            MicroVAX 3800, MicroVAX 3900   +  VAXstation:VAXstation II, VAXstation 2000, $            VAXstation 3100 Model 30,$            VAXstation 3100 Model 38,$            VAXstation 3100 Model 40,$            VAXstation 3100 Model 48,$            VAXstation 3100 Model 76,,            VAXstation 3200, VAXstation 3500,+            VAXstation 3520, VAXstation 3540   $            VAXstation 4000 Model 60,$            VAXstation 4000 Model 90,            VAXstation 4000 VLC  ;  VAXserver: VAXserver 3100, VAXserver 3300, VAXserver 3400, :            VAXserver 3500, VAXserver 3600, VAXserver 3602,)            VAXserver 3800, VAXserver 3900   $            VAXserver 4000 Model 200,$            VAXserver 4000 Model 300,#            VAXserver 4000 Model 500           #                                   5          $            VAXserver 6000 Model 210,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 220,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 310,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 320,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 410,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 420,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 510,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 520,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 610,$            VAXserver 6000 Model 620,#            VAXserver 6000 Model 630     Processors Not Supported:  &  MicroVAX I, VAXstation I, VAX-11/725,  VAX-11/782, VAXstation 8000    VAX Processor Restrictions:  E  A TK50 tape drive is required for standalone MicroVAX 2000 and VAXs-   tation 2000 systems.   D  A network interface controller supported by DECnet-VAX is required.                                #                                   6          AXP Processor Restrictions:  F  A network interface controller supported by DECnet for OpenVMS AXP is
