Installing HP Distributed Print Service

Installing Individual HPDPS Components

You might wish to install only certain HPDPS components on a given

host. For example, a host might only use the HPDPS client to access

servers on other hosts, and so HPDPS servers need not be installed on

that host.

The components that can be individually installed are the client, the

spooler, and the supervisor.

To select an individual component for installation, ﬁrst run

/usr/sbin/swinstall as root on the chosen host and select your HP-UX

operating system media as the software source. Then perform the

following:

1. Using the View item on the menu bar, select Change Software View

and choose Start with Products.

2. Choose Source Depot Type.

3. Select Source Depot Path.

4. Double click on a path

5. Click OK. swinstall now reads the software source.

6. In the list of products, double-click on product DistributedPrint.

7. Mark one or a combination of the following ﬁlesets for installation,

according to the desired components:

PD_CLIENT for the HPDPS client

PD_COMMON back-end ﬁleset dependency

PD_SERVCOMMON back-end ﬁleset dependency

PD_SPOOLER for the HPDPS spooler

PD_SUPERVISOR for the HPDPS supervisor

8. Proceed with Install Analysis and installation of the marked

ﬁlesets.
