printers.confi
g Files
The label_printers.config file located in the $VS_DIR/config
directory is used as a reference file for the label printers in the
VolServ system. The printer name and type of printer are
entered in this file; e.g., ps1 postscript.The label printers must
be contained in this file to be accessed by VolServ.
The printers.config file located in the $VS_DIR/config
directory is used as a reference file for all the printers used in
the VolServ system; e.g., lp1, bc1, ps1, etc.
Maintaining this file ensures all printer names are accessible to
the Printer pop-up window. Refer to the appropriate VolServ
Software Manual. By placing the cursor in the Printer Name
entry box and clicking the right mouse button, a pull-down
menu containing all printer names will be displayed allowing
one to be selected and automatically entered.
Any printer not entered in the printers.config file can still
be accessed, but its name is not shown in the Printer pop-up
window.
Other .config
Files
The process.config and servers.config files located in
the
$VS_DIR/config directory defines the resident VolServ
processes and the arguments the processes use. These processes
are necessary for VolServ operations.
Caution
Do not modify these files unless directed by ATAC personnel.
