DESCRIPTION
Use this administrative command,
pdpause, to pause an object that holds jobs or to pause a job.
Objects that can be paused are as follows:
• pending print jobs
• held print jobs
• currently-processing print jobs
• physical printers
• queues
• servers (pauses all of the queues contained in a spooler or all physical printers contained in a
supervisor)
To resume a paused object, use the
pdresume command.
Note: The pdpause and pdresume commands control output, whereas the pdenable and pddis-
able
commands control input.
Options
Use the following options with the pdpause command:
-c ObjectClass
Specify the object class that you want to pause. The ObjectClass can be one of the following:
printer (default)
queue
job
server
Within the valid classes, printer is a physical printer, and a server is either a spooler or a super-
visor. This option is equivalent to specifying the command-attribute
class.
-h Display a command-specific help message containing information about command syntax and options.
This option cannot be used with another option or with an attribute.
-j Only valid when used with object-class printer. Use this option to pause the currently printing job
on the specified physical printer.
-m "MessageText"
Specify the message that is to be associated with the ObjectClass that is being paused: printer,
queue, job,orserver. You can use this message to indicate the reason that a pause has taken
place or to provide other comments.
When pausing a supervisor, HPDPS propagates the message to the message attribute of the physi-
cal printers residing in a supervisor. The message attribute for the supervisor is not changed.
When pausing a spooler, the message is propagated to the message attribute of the queues residing
in the spooler. The message attribute for the spooler is not changed.
