Installing secondary InfoPrint servers
InfoPrint Manager lets you configure multiple AIX systems to work together to meet your printing needs. To install secondary servers, in an InfoPrint environment, you will be using the Network File System (NFS) to enable communication between servers. To make this work correctly, you must use one of these two procedures:
- Installing secondary InfoPrint servers using NFS (no job ticketing).
- Installing secondary InfoPrint servers using NFS (with job ticketing).
Important: If the primary server is a Linux machine and the secondary servers are AIX, you must
run this command on each AIX server:
nfso -p -o nfs_use_reserved_ports=1
Note: If you are using Domain Name Server (DNS) or Network Information Service (NIS) name
resolution services, be sure to update these services with all of the new server information
before proceeding. DNS and NIS are centralized services used to resolve hostnames
into IP addresses. When a new machine is added to the network, these services must
be advised of the hostname and IP address of the new system. These services might
be used on your LAN. If you are unsure about your network's name resolution services,
contact your network administrator.
