7.2 System Administration Guide

The following notes describe additional information for the System

Administration guide.

7.2.1 Section 10.5.2.1 (Print Symbols for Advanced Printing

Software)

The description of the printcap entries for Advanced Printing Software is

inaccurate.

When setting up Advanced Printing Software, you should set the following

print symbols:

• rm – specify @dpa to indicate that jobs submitted to this printer should

be directed to the Advanced Printing Software inbound gateway. The

inbound gateway submits the job to an Advanced Printing Software

spooler.

• rp – specify the name of the Advanced Printing Software logical printer

7.2.2 Section E.4.1 (Hardware Requirements)

The Logical Partitions feature is supported on the AlphaServer GS140

system. An AlphaServer 8400 (upgraded to a GS140 by replacing the

processor modules) is also supported.

XMI hardware may be used with Logical Partitions. However, XMI

controllers and devices must be conﬁgured into partition zero (0). This is a

console ﬁrmware restriction.

The minimum requirement for a partition is one IOP module. A partition

may include a second IOP module. The maximum number of IOP modules

for the entire system (the sum of all partitions) is three.

The restriction of a graphics device to windowing software (cannot be the

console device) applies only to secondary partitions. A supported graphics

device can be the console for the primary partition (partition 0). To use a

graphics console, set the console environment variable to BOTH before
