The queue file z/OS Communications Server: IP Network Print Facility SC27-3658-00 |
|
For each print job, a Network Print Facility capture point application creates a temporary QSAM data set that contains the print data. It also adds a record to the queue file to keep track of the temporary print data set. The queue file is a VSAM key-sequenced data set with one record for each print job. The key of a queue file record is based on the major name, minor name, and the name of the temporary QSAM print data set. The queue file record also contains status fields plus the retry time, retain times, and retry limit found in the routing file record for that destination. After a queue file record has been created, it comes under
the control of the queue manager. Through the use of the NPF ISPF
interface, you can affect how the queue manager handles the queue
file and the temporary print data sets.
