System Administration Attributes
The _ _SYS group header attribute stores values for attributes such as the sh, si, and st
attributes. The sh and st attributes store the pipelines for the header page and the trailer
page.
The si attribute identifies who receives printer–intervention messages when the printer
needs attention. A null string specifies that intervention messages should go to the user who
submitted the print job. Separate user names with a comma. Use the SMIT Virtual Printers
option or the chvirprt command to change the attribute as needed.
For example, si= specifies that the user who submitted the print job should receive the
messages, si=mary specifies the user mary should receive the messages, and
si=,jim@server02 specifies that both the user who submitted the print job and jim at
node server02 should receive intervention messages.
The first character for a system administration attribute is s.
