4.1.7 Installing the Print Server on Multiple
File Servers
To install the print server on more than one file server, perform the
procedures described in Sections 4.1.1 through 4.1.6 for each file
server. You must use the same name and password for the print server
(or no password) on all file servers. You set the password for the NIC
using the MAP or a Web Browser (refer to 4.3 Configuring the NIC in
Novell Directory Services). If you use a password, specify it on each
file server using the
Change Password
option on the Print Server
Information menu of the PCONSOLE utility.
When the NIC comes up, it automatically searches for and attaches to
the file servers that are no more than four hops and have no more than
eight ticks propagation delay. For extremely large or complex
networks, this allows a bounded search time on start-up. If the print
server must attach to file servers beyond this range, or, if you wish to
accelerate start-up by eliminating the need to search all file servers in
the four hops/eight ticks radius, the file servers with which the print
server is to operate may be entered into the Print Server Configuration
of a “primary” file server. The primary file server can be any file server
within the four hops/eight ticks propagation time limits, but ideally is
as close as possible to the print server. Once the print server locates the
primary file server and the list of file servers to be serviced, the
automatic search is dropped and the print server will go directly to
those file servers listed (and to no others).
