pdresubmit command: resubmits jobs

Syntax

pdresubmit [-H host:port] [-c ObjectClass] [-g] [-i][-r "RequestedAttribute …"] 
[-s StyleName] 
[-x "attribute=value …"] [-X AttributesFileName] 
[ServerName:]TargetLogicalDestinationName 
{LocalJobID … | GlobalJobID … | 
[ServerName:]QueueName … | 
[ServerName:]DestinationName …}

pdresubmit -h

Description

Use the pdresubmit command to resubmit an existing job to a specific logical destination. The logical destination can be in the same server as the logical destination to which the job was first submitted or a different server. You can only resubmit jobs that have the current job state of held, pending, retained, or unknown.

If the logical destination specified is in a different server, the old server resubmits the job with all of its current attributes to the new server. InfoPrint includes any default attributes associated with the old server so that the new job remains as similar as possible to the old job. If the new server accepts the job, it assigns a new global job identifier and the old global job identifier becomes not valid.

When you specify the -i flag, InfoPrint Manager deletes all the attributes with values in the default job and default document referenced by the current logical destination attributes destination-initial-value-job and destination-initial-value-document from the job and the job documents. The InfoPrint Manager server updates the job and document objects with the attribute values from the target destination default objects.

Logical destinations and queues can also be arguments for this command. If a logical destination is the argument, InfoPrint resubmits all of the jobs submitted to the old logical destination to the specified new logical destination. If a queue is the argument, InfoPrint resubmits all of the jobs in the old queue to the specified logical destination. InfoPrint validates all of the resubmitted jobs again. If the newly specified logical destination does does not support them, they remain in the queue that they were in originally.

If the new logical destination cannot accept the job for some reason, InfoPrint issues an error message and the job stays where it was.

Flags

You can use these flags with the pdresubmit command:

-Hhost:port

Identifies the host and port of the InfoPrint Manager server used for communication. When not specified, the command follows the Configuration logic to define the host and socket.

-c {job | queue | destination} DEFAULT=job

Specifies the object class that you want for this command. In the valid classes, destination only applies to logical destinations.

Using this flag is equivalent to specifying the command attribute operation-class.

-g

Turns off headings.

Using this flag is equivalent to specifying the command attribute headings=false.

-i

Resets the job and document attributes default values.

Using this flag is equivalent to specifying the command attribute ignore-ivo=true.

When the target destination is on the same server, these apply:

• Before moving the job to the new destination, InfoPrint Manager does not delete the document-format attribute from the job documents attributes.
• The InfoPrint Manager server does not update the job-scheduling attribute. The job-scheduling attribute indicates how the associated job is scheduled.
• InfoPrint Manager server attempts to recalculate job-page-count and total-job-octets attributes.
• InfoPrint Manager server sets a retention period attribute only if one is not already set in the job. The retention period attributes are job-retain-until (Job only), job-retention-period and retain-forever.

-r {none | briefverbose} DEFAULT=none

Specifies the group of attributes you want InfoPrint to display for the specified job, queue, or destination.

none

Displays no attributes.
