Introduction
HP Output Server
This chapter introduces HP Output Server attributes. Attributes are descriptors with one or more associated values that define HP Output Server objects. HP Output Server objects include jobs, destinations and queues, servers, transformers, forms, and paging systems.
You can specify an attribute in a command, a function call, or an object configuration file.
When you use the command line interface (CLI) to manipulate HP Output Server processes, you can pass attributes to the command through -x. The attributes are sub-options within -x.
Function calls can also receive attributes specified by the user at a command line in the attribute-string format. A separate interface (program-attribute-string) allows an application to add its own attribute values in addition to the user’s.
This chapter includes the following sections to introduce HP Output Server attributes:
• “Attribute reference information” on page 2 describes the information in each attribute’s description.
• “Attribute syntax” on page 4 describes how to set attributes.
NOTE: For information about HP Output Server commands, see the System Administrator’s Command Reference for HP Output Server.

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute reference information
To help provide context for using HP Output Server attributes, this manual organizes the attributes as follows:
• Chapter 2, “Attributes” on page 23 provides reference information for HP Output Server attributes. These entries are arranged alphabetically. Related attributes are grouped together.
• Appendix A, “Attributes by Object Class” on page 263 organizes attributes by the object the attribute affects. The appendix groups attributes by object class.
Attribute reference information
Each attribute entry in this manual contains the following information about the attribute:• Description indicates the attribute’s function and usage.
• Type indicates whether the attribute returns a status, controls an object, or sets configuration information.
• Object indicates the class of objects that the attribute affects.
• Data Type indicates the format for the attribute’s value.
• Valid Values lists values (where appropriate) that you can specify with the attribute.
Types
This manual classifies attributes by type: control, status, and configuration. These attribute types are for the purpose of discussion, and are not related to formal divisions of function made by other entities. Attributes that are inaccessible to users and programmers, such as protocol attributes, are not covered in this manual.Control attributes control objects, usually in the context of submitting a job or managing a job with the pdpr or pdmod commands. Some control attributes are used for objects other than jobs.
Status attributes indicate the current characteristics of an object when using the pdls or pdq commands. The -requested-attributes attribute specifies how to return status information. The specification defines a set of status attributes to return as the status of the job. You can specify all, verbose, brief, none, or any combination of attributes. You receive the union of what you specify. The following specification returns all the attributes defined in the brief specification plus the value for -intervening-jobs:
-requested-attributes brief, intervening-jobs
System Administrator’s Attribute Reference
HP Output Server
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute reference information
In a status request, you can use attributes listed in the status category as values for the –requested-attributes attribute.
Configuration attributes define the behavior and characteristics of HP Output Server objects and servers. Use the pdset and pdcreate commands to define an object’s configuration stored at the CM. Use the config_server command to define a server’s configuration stored in the HostConfig.sgml file. Use the config_host command to define the local host’s configuration stored in the HostConfig.sgml file.
Object classes
Each attribute works on one or more object classes. The following list defines HP Output Server object classes:• server, such as DLM, JQM, or DSM
• job (PS, PCL, text, pager, fax, LPR, FTP, file, dialup, and for each document)
• queue
• destination
- logical destination, such as PS, PCL, text, fax, pager, FTP, and so forth
- physical destination, such as PS, PCL, text, fax, pager, FTP, and so forth
• forms
• paging system
• transformer
• capabilities
Data types
An attribute’s data type specifies the format for valid values for the attribute. In addition, some data type entries include examples of valid values or descriptions of how to set the valid values. Data types can be one of the following:• integer
• real number
• text (alphanumeric characters and spaces)

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
The delivery servers enforce a limit of 253 characters on attributes whose values are strings. The -job-name attribute is an example of such an attribute. Although HP Output Server allows you to specify a value greater than this limit (through pdpr or pdmod, for example), commands attempting to use these values (pdls, for example) may return unexpected results.
• identifier (another attribute type)
• Boolean
• object (object name)
• time
The character value for the time data type is Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) in Zulu format. You can abbreviate the string from the right. For example, the value 20040528200015Z represents 8:00:15PM UTC, May 28, 2004:
Because time values are stored as UTC values, you must adjust the value for your time zone. For example, to adjust UTC for Central Standard Time (CST), subtract six hours.

Attribute syntax
Manipulating an HP Output Server object can involve setting attribute values for the object. Depending on the object, you may use one of the following commands to set attribute values:• config_server
• pdcreate
• pdset
• pdpr
• pdmod
S
ystem Ad ministrator’s Attribute ReferenceHP Output Server
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Use -x and (excluding config_server) -o to set attribute values.
NOTE: The sections that follow apply to the pd* and config_server commands only.
An attribute consists of a name (also referred to as an attribute type) and one or more values. A value can be numeric or a string, depending on the attribute. The following general rules apply when you specify attribute values:
• For single-valued attributes, separate the attribute name from its value with a space.
–copy-count 3
• For multi-valued attributes, separate the attribute values with a comma and a space. If the values of an attribute contain spaces, tabs or other special characters, enclose the value in escaped quotation marks.
–header-text \"Lease Agreement\", \"Atticus Properties\", \"Residential Contract\"
• Some attributes take attribute names as values, as in the following example:
-requested-attributes job-identifier
• You can abbreviate attributes to the shortest string that uniquely identifies them. For multi-word attribute names, you must represent every word. In many cases, the first letters of the word are sufficient, as is the case with the -requested-attributes attribute:
-r-a all-r-a current-job-state, started-printing-time
The following sections describe attribute syntax in more detail, including the following topics:
• “Setting attributes with the -x switch”
• “Setting attributes with the -o switch” on page 7
• “Setting attributes with both switches” on page 8
• “Setting multi-valued attributes” on page 8
• “Requesting attribute values” on page 9
• “Abbreviating attributes” on page 11

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Setting attributes with the -x switch
6
The -x switch includes one or more attribute specifications enclosed in double quotes. Syntax for the -x switch is as follows:
-x"-attribute value -attribute value,value,..."
You can also include a space between the -x switch and its attribute specification, as in the following example:
pdpr -d ps1 -x "-copy-count 5" memo.ps
NOTE: In command examples, this manual omits the space after the -x switch.
Use the following rules with the -x switch.
The following table provides examples of setting attributes with the -x switch.
Table 1-1. Rules for using the -x switch
Rule Command Syntax
Separate an attribute name and its value with a space.
-x"-attribute value"
Separate multiple attribute-value pairs with a space.
-x"-attribute value -attribute value"
Separate multiple values with a comma and a space.
-x"-attribute value, value, value"
Enclose a value that contains embedded spaces (or other special characters, including commas and hyphens) in escaped double-quotes.
-x"-attribute \"This is a value.\""
Table 1-2. Using the -x switch to set attributes
Task Command
Set the -maximum-tries attribute to 15 for a job sent to fax1.
pdpr -d fax1 -x"-maximum-tries 15" memo.ps
Set the -fax-phone-number attribute to 1-800-999-9999 and the -maximum-tries attribute to 15 for a job sent to fax1.
pdpr -d fax1 -x"-fax-phone-number 1-800-999-9999 -maximum-tries 15" memo.ps

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Setting attributes with the -o switch
Set the -fax-phone-number attribute to 1-800-999-9999 and 1-800-888-8888 for a job sent to fax1.
pdpr -d fax1 -x"-fax-phone-number 1-800-999-9999, 1-800-888-8888" memo.ps
Set the -fax-to-person attribute to Sales Department for a job sent to fax1.
pdpr -d fax1 -x"-fax-to-person \"Sales Department\"" memo.ps
Table 1-2. Using the -x switch to set attributes (continued)
Task Command
HP Output Server
The -o switch identifies a file that contains attribute specifications. Syntax for the -o switch takes the following form:
-o optionsFile
The file containing the attribute specifications includes one or more attribute specifications separated by a space or new line character:
-attribute value -attribute value -attribute value, value, value
For example, in -o faxToSales, the faxToSales file might contain the following attribute specifications:
-fax-phone-number 1-800-999-9999, 800-888-8888-fax-to-person "Sales Department" -maximum-tries 15
To specify an attribute value that spans multiple lines and include it in an options file, use a backslash character (\) at the end of each line and enclose the entire range of values within double quotes. The following example sets the -mail-message attribute:
-mail-message "\first line \second line"
7
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Setting attributes with both switches
8
You can specify attributes with both the -o and -x switches. If you set an attribute more than once on the command line, the command uses the last value set. In the following example, both the -o switch (through the faxToSales options file) and the -x switch set the -maximum-tries attribute. Because the -x switch appears later in the command line, it sets the -maximum-tries value to 10.
pdpr -d fax1 -o faxToSales -x"-maximum-tries 10" file.ps
Setting multi-valued attributes
HP Output Server attributes can take single or multiple values, depending on the attribute. Typically, you use the pdset command with the + and - operators to set and unset a multi-valued attribute. You can also use the config_host -u and config_server -u constructions with the + and - operators to set and unset multi-valued attributes.The following example adds the text_to_ps transformer to dsm_01’s list of supported transformers:
pdset -c server -x"-+transformers-supported text_to_ps" dsm_01
Omitting the + replaces the entire list with the single text_to_ps value:
pdset -c server -x"-transformers-supported text_to_ps" dsm_01
The following example removes the transformer from the list of supported transformers:
pdset -c server -x"--transformers-supported text_to_ps" dsm_01
Subtracting the last value in a multi-valued attribute removes the attribute.
The following table describes these operators.Table 1-3. Operators for setting multi-valued attributes
Operator Definition
-attribute value,... This replaces the values of attribute with value,... If no attributes exist, add attribute.
-+attribute value,... This adds the value,... to attribute. If no attributes exist, add attribute.
System Administrator’s Attribute Reference
HP Output Server
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
If a multi-valued attribute is not set, using the -+attribute value construction has the same effect as using the -attribute value construction. Consider the following sample commands, in which the -server-environment-variables attribute is not set on the installation’s delivery servers. In this example, both commands set the attribute to 40000-40200.
config_server -u -t delivery -x"-+server-environment-variables 'DAZEL_PORTS=40000-40200'"
config_server -u -t delivery -x"-server-environment-variables 'DAZEL_PORTS=40000-40200'"
--attribute value,... This removes the value,... from attribute.
Table 1-3. Operators for setting multi-valued attributes (continued)
Operator Definition
Requesting attribute values
Use the -requested-attributes attribute with the pdls and pdq commands to return attribute values. The -requested-attributes values can be sets of attributes or individual attributes. Multiple values are separated with a comma and space. Attribute names do not have a preceding dash character (-).The following table lists values you can use with -requested-attributes.
You can request attribute values with either the -x switch or the -a switch.
Table 1-4. Values for -requested-attributes
Value Description
brief Short set of object attributes (default)
verbose Moderate set of object attributes
all Set of all object attributes
none No attributes

Requesting attribute values with the -x switch
10
Use the -x switch with -requested-attributes as follows. If you specify more than one value for -requested-attributes, HP Output Server returns the union.
-x"-requested-attributes value, value,..."
NOTE: Do not precede attribute names that follow -requested-attributes with a - (dash).
The following table lists some examples of requesting attribute values with the -x switch.Table 1-5. Using the -x switch to request attribute values
Task Command
Request all attributes of the ps1 destination.
pdls -c d -x"-requested-attributes all" ps1
Request the brief set of attributes and the -completion-time attribute of the job with ID dlm_01:12:1:3.
pdq -x"-requested-attributes brief, completion-time" dlm_01:12:1:3
Request the -job-owner attribute of the job with ID dlm_01:12:1:3.
pdq -x"-requested-attributes job-owner" dlm_01:12:1:3
Requesting attribute values with the -a switch
The -a switch specifies -requested-attributes implicitly.Use the following form with the -a switch, substituting brief, verbose, all, none, or attribute as the value:
-a value
Separate multiple values with a comma and a space, and enclose the values in double quotes. When you specify multiple values, HP Output Server returns the union.
-a "value, value,..."
NOTE: Do not precede attribute names that follow -a with a - (dash).

Request the -job-owner attribute of the job with ID dlm_01:12:1:3.
pdq -a job-owner dlm_01:12:1:3
Filtering attribute values
When you use the pdls or pdq command (depending on the HP Output Server object) to list attribute values for an object, you can specify selection criteria with the -x switch.NOTE: Using -a none returns object names only.
The following table lists examples of filtering attribute values.
Abbreviating attributes

Search the CM database (ids_ccm) to list the names of all physical destinations (-printer-realization 1) in the HP Output Server domain, excluding templates (-template false).
pdls -c d -a none -x"-template false -printer-realization 1" ids_ccm:
When specifying an attribute, you can abbreviate it to the shortest string that uniquely identifies the attribute. For multi-word attributes, you must represent each word.
NOTE: The config_server command does not accept abbreviated attributes.

-x"-requested-attributes cleanup-interval"
-x"-r-a clean-int"
-a cleanup-interval -a clean-int
Attribute order
Attribute order in the command line can affect how HP Output Server carries out the command.If a job includes multiple documents, the attribute type and its placement in the command affect the outcome of the job. Job attributes act on the entire job and include -job-print-after and -job-priority. Document attributes act on subsequent documents in a job and include -copy-count and -page-select. If a job includes only one document, attributes specified at job submission apply to both the job and to the document.
NOTE: For a list of job and document attributes, see Appendix A, “Attributes by Object Class” on page 263.
You can type a job attribute anywhere in the command line. If a job attribute appears more than once, the system uses the last attribute value. You must type a document attribute immediately before the document it affects. Unless you reset it, a document attribute applies to subsequent documents in the command line.
The following examples illustrate the effect of attribute order on the command line.
To print three copies of file1.ps and file2.ps at printers ps1 and ps2, type the following command:
pdpr -d ps1,ps2 -x"-copy-count 3" file1.ps file2.ps

To print one copy (the default) of file1.ps and three copies of file2.ps at printers ps1 and ps2, type the following command. Because the -copy-count attribute precedes file2.ps, the attribute applies only to file2.ps.
pdpr -d ps1,ps2 file1.ps -x"-copy-count 3" file2.ps
To print three copies of file1.ps and two copies of file2.ps at printers ps1 and ps2, type the following command. The first occurrence of the -copy-count attribute applies to file1.ps, and the second occurrence to file2.ps.

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
To send the text1.txt file to faxDest and fileDest, type the following command:
pdpr -d faxDest,fileDest -x"-fax-phone-number 9-1-555-1212 -fax-to-person \"John Doe\" -file-filename archive.txt -file-permissions 655" text1.txt
The -fax-phone-number and -fax-to-person attributes are job attributes for the fax destination; the -file-filename and -file-permissions attributes are document attributes for the file system destination. Because the delivery request is for one document, the order of attributes in the -x attribute string is not important.
NOTE: If a job attribute does not apply, the attribute is ignored. For example, HP Output Server ignores the value of the -fax-phone-number attribute if you specify it for delivery to file destination or a printer.
You cannot set an attribute that acts on a destination multiple times in one job; that is, you cannot specify one -fax-phone-number for destination fax1 and another -fax-phone-number for destination fax2 in the same job. Instead, you must submit two separate jobs.
Attribute precedence
You can set most attributes at the following three points:1. at job submission
2. at a logical destination as a default
3. at a physical destination as a default
An attribute value set at job submission takes precedence over a default value set at the logical destination or physical destination. A default value set at the logical destination takes precedence over a default value set at the physical destination. In general, the attribute value set closest to job submission takes precedence over subsequent (default) attribute values in the delivery cycle.
The following table illustrates how many HP Output Server attributes are related.Table 1-9. Attribute precedence
Attribute Description
-attribute The -attribute is set at job submission.
15
16
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
With default values set at the logical or physical destination, users can submit jobs without having to specify required or commonly used attribute values. Attribute precedence also lets a job owner (the value of the -job-owner attribute) override default attribute values set at the logical or physical destination.
The following examples illustrate attribute precedence.
Example 1: Attributes set at the job and logical destination
Example 2: Attributes set at the job and physical destination
-attribute-default The -attribute-default is set at the logical or physical destination. If -attribute is not set at job submission, the -attribute-default is used.
-attribute-supported The -attributes-supported are set at the logical destination and specify valid attribute values. The job or document attribute is validated automatically. With few exceptions, validation does not occur automatically at the physical destination.

Using attribute variables
Using attribute variables instructs the DSM to replace the variables with values. You can use attribute variables on job sheets, in headers and footers, in file names, as program arguments, and in some cases, as attribute values.Single-valued attribute variables are formatted as follows. Note that the attribute is not preceded by a dash.
!{job-owner}!
17
18
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
When the DSM encounters the delimiters !{ and }!, it replaces the attribute variable -job-owner with the attribute value.
Consider multi-valued attributes as an array or list of values. For example, -fax-comments, a multi-valued attribute, might be composed of the following three values:
red,green,blue
A sequential index number (beginning with 1) corresponds to each -fax-comments value as shown in the following table.
To select the value, append the : (colon) and the index number to the variable name, as follows:
!{fax-comments:2}!
When the fax cover sheet prints, the DSM replaces the -fax-comments attribute variable with the value green.
To replace all values of -fax-comments, append the : and the index number 0 to the attribute, for example, !{fax-comments:0}!.
The DSM replaces the -fax-comments variable with the following values:
red,green,blue
Not specifying an index number is equivalent to specifying index number 1. For example, the following are equivalent:
!{fax-comments}!!{fax-comments:1}!
In both cases, the -fax-comments attribute variable is replaced with the value red.

Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Specifying attribute value length
HP Output Server
You can specify the length, or number of characters, in attribute variable values.
NOTE: With an attribute variable, you can specify the printed length of the attribute value; the length that you specify does not affect the length of the stored attribute value.
For a single-valued attribute, specify the value length as follows:
!{attribute,length}!
where attribute is the attribute name and length specifies the length of the attribute value. The following example specifies 20 characters for the length of the value of -job-owner:
!{job-owner,20}!
For a multi-valued attribute, specify the value length as follows:
!{attribute:index,length}!
where attribute is the attribute name, index identifies the attribute value, and length specifies the length (number of characters) of the attribute value. The following example specifies 75 characters for the length of the second value of -fax-comments:
!{fax-comments:2,75}!
If the length of the attribute value is greater than the specified length, the attribute value is truncated to the specified length. For example, if the value of -job-owner is John Doe, the value of the attribute variable !{job-owner,4}! is John; the DSM truncates the value to four characters.
If the length you specify is greater than the length of the attribute value or if you set the length to 0, the entire attribute value replaces the attribute variable. The following examples yield equivalent values, assuming that the value of -job-owner is John Doe:
!{job-owner}!!{job-owner,0}!!{job-owner,75}!
NOTE: Do not insert spaces within an attribute variable.
19
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
Replacing attributes
20
Variables are replaced recursively by HP Output Server. In the following example, HP Output Server replaces the !{job-comment}! variable with the text Submitted at and the value of the -job-submission-time attribute:
pdpr -d ps1 -x"-job-name !{job-comment}! -job-comment \"Submitted at !{job-submission-time}!\"" file1.ps
Recursive attribute replacement also works with conditional attribute replacement. For information about conditional attribute replacement, see the System Administrator’s Guide for HP Output Server.
In the following example, the -header-text-default attribute contains the value of the -job-comment attribute if it is present, or None:
pdset -c d -x"-header-text-default \"Comment: \${ job-comment ? !{job-comment}! :: None }$\"" pps1

Conditional replacement
HP Output Server can recursively or conditionally replace variables.System Administrator’s Attribute Reference
HP Output Server
Chapter 1 Introduction
Attribute syntax
You can use a conditional expression to perform attribute replacement based on a set of conditions. The syntax for this type of attribute replacement is similar to the use of the ?: operator in the C programming language. For example,
condRepExp = ${condition ? setValue}$condRepExp = ${condition ? setValue :: unsetValue}$condRepExp = ${condition ? setValue :: condRepExp}$
In the examples, the ${ and }$ characters enclose the conditional expression. The ? character denotes a then clause, and the :: characters represent an optional else clause.
The condition in the examples is an attribute. If the attribute evaluates to true, the value of condRepExp is set to the value of setValue. If the attribute is not set or if the attribute does not have a value, the result of condRepExp is set to the value of unsetValue, or the nested condition is evaluated to determine a value. You can nest conditional replacement expressions by adding conditions after the :: characters as shown in the following example:
${condition ? setValue :: ${condition ? setValue}$}$
The setValue and unsetValue can be a simple name or an attribute variable. For example,
${job-name ? \"There is a name for this job\"}$${job-name ? !{job-name}!}$
The first example replaces the -job-name attribute in a command with the string, There is a name for this job. The second example replaces the -job-name attribute with the value of the attribute.
When you are setting up conditional replacement of attribute variables, you may find syntax restrictions that are specific to the operating system. In the following UNIX example, the \ is used to escape the $ and each argument is enclosed in single quotes ('):
pdset –c transformer -x"-transformer-program installDir/bin/perl -transformer-program-arguments installDir/custom/custom_transform.pl, '\${job-custom-1 ? !{job-custom-1}!}\$', '\${job-custom-2 ? !{job-custom-2}!}\$'" custom_transform
In the following Windows example, each argument is enclosed in single quotes ('):

HP Output Server
This chapter provides an alphabetical listing of HP Output Server attributes. Each attribute entry includes the following:
• Description indicates the attribute’s function and usage.
• Type indicates whether the attribute returns a status, controls an object, or sets configuration information.
• Objects indicates the class of objects that the attribute affects.
• Data Types indicates the format for the attribute’s value.
• Valid Values indicates a list of values that you can specify with the attribute.
NOTE: Valid values are included only where appropriate.
-accounting-profile
The -accounting-profile multi-valued attribute lets you collect event information about jobs, destinations, servers, and operations.The Accounting and Inventory Manager (AIM) stores accounting information in the following AIM classes:
• job-accounting
• destination-accounting
• server-accounting
23
24
Chapter 2 Attributes
-accounting-profile
The Job and Queue Managers (JQMs), Destination Managers (DSMs), and Configuration Manager (CM) can create records in the accounting classes as follows:
• JQMs can create records in the job-accounting class.
• DSMs can create records in the destination-accounting class.
• The CM and all delivery servers can create records in the server-accounting class.
To populate an accounting class, you must turn it on by setting the -accounting-profile attribute at the appropriate server. The values associated with this attribute at the specified server determine what information the accounting class stores. These values have the same name as the attributes maintained in each accounting record.
The -accounting-profile attribute is multi-valued and takes the following form:
-accounting-profile {{event [, ...]}, accountingService, "accountingClass accountingClassAttribute = \"string [...]\", accountingServiceInstance"}
The -accounting-profile attribute for the job-accounting class has 17 fields, and the -accounting-profile attribute for the destination-accounting and server-accounting classes has 5 fields. For information about scripts to automate setting this attribute, contact Customer Support. For information on setting up accounting, see the System Administrator’s Guide for HP Output Server.

Data Type Identifier
Valid Values capabilities, form, destination (synonymous with printer), host, job, paging-system, printer, queue, server, transformer
The -cleanup-checkjob-interval single-valued attribute specifies the interval at which the DLM checks job status information at the JQM. Normally, the JQM informs the DLM when the JQM deletes a subjob from its database. If communication is interrupted, the JQM may not inform the DLM of a subjob deletion. To prevent stale jobs from remaining in its database, the DLM checks with the JQM to determine the status of subjobs every time the -cleanup-checkjob-interval elapses for the subjob. If the subjob is no longer in the JQM’s database, the DLM considers the job stale and deletes it from its own database.
To prevent the DLM from checking job status at the JQM prematurely, set -cleanup-checkjob-interval to a value greater than the -retention-period-default of any logical destination managed by the JQM.

Chapter 2 Attributes
-cleanup-checkjob-period-limit
Consider setting -cleanup-checkjob-interval to a value 1800 seconds (30 minutes) greater than -retention-period-default. Because the value of -retention-period-default is in minutes, use the following formula to calculate the value of -cleanup-checkjob-interval:
(value of -retention-period-default x 60) + 1800 seconds
The default is 23400 seconds (6.5 hours).
-cleanup-checkjob-period-limit
Types Configuration and Status
Object Server: DLM
Data Type Integer (Positive)
The -cleanup-checkjob-period-limit single-valued attribute specifies the time frame a DLM uses to build an internal list of jobs that require processing because they have exceeded the -cleanup-checkjob-interval. If this attribute is not defined, the default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes). With the attribute set to the default, the DLM will query the database for all jobs that are due to exceed the -cleanup-checkjob-interval within the next 1800 seconds.
With the list of jobs built, the list grows smaller as jobs expire. When the -cleanup-checkjob-period-limit is reached, the DLM queries the database for the next set of jobs due to exceed the -cleanup-checkjob-interval within the -cleanup-checkjob-period-limit. If no jobs are due to exceed the interval within this limit, the DLM does nothing until the limit is reached and the next list of jobs is built.
If the job list is large, the DLM’s memory usage can increase significantly. Setting the -cleanup-checkjob-period-limit to a smaller value, such as 600 seconds (10 minutes), can decrease the number of jobs in the list and, as a result, the memory allocated to the task. A trade-off to setting the attribute to a value smaller than the default is that the DLM will query the database more frequently for jobs set to exceed the -cleanup-checkjob-interval.

Data Type Time (UTC)
The -connection-lifetime single-valued attribute indicates whether the printer connection is always maintained (device) or is maintained for the duration of a job only (job). If the -connection-lifetime attribute is not set on a physical destination, the DSM maintains connections for the duration of a job only. To use job overlay, you must set the value to device. For more information about configuring physical destinations to support job overlay, see the System Administrator’s Guide for HP Output Server.
If you set this attribute’s value to device, the DSM maintains a constant connection between the server and the printer. The constant connection allows the server to use a printer’s job overlay capabilities. However, the constant connection also means that other servers cannot send jobs to the printer because it is dedicated to one server. If several servers must print to the printer (which is not recommended), do not set this attribute to device.

Job State Description
unknown This is a pseudo job state. A job changes from unknown to another state when it is created, and from another state to unknown when it disappears.
preprocessing This is the initial state of a subjob during creation. For example, when a job is created with the pdpr command, its state is preprocessing. The state changes when creation completes.
document-transfer-pending
This is the state of a job waiting for documents to transfer to a spool area over the network. A job does not change to this state if files are transferred by reference (that is, shared job databases).
transferring Files are transferring to the spool area. For example, the job is in the middle of network transfer.
pending The job waiting is in the queue until a physical device is ready.
processing The job is processing at the physical device.
interrupted The job has been interrupted and re-queued. This state is similar to pending, except that a condition (a busy fax number, for example) prevented job completion, and so the job is waiting for the -minimum-retry-interval to expire.

Chapter 2 Attributes
-database-server-hostname
You can use this attribute to manage growth of the HP Output Server servers. During periods of heavy load, lowering the value of -database-client-max-connections may decrease the size of the specified HP Output Server server. If the limit is reached, any pending database connections must wait until the current connections finish operations and close.
Increasing the value of -database-client-max-connections may improve the server’s performance, but the size of the server will also increase.
If you set -database-client-max-connections too high, it is possible that HP Output Server will exceed the value of the MySQL max_connections parameter. The max_connections parameter is stored in the my.cnf file and limits the number of concurrent client connections from all applications, including HP Output Server and any other application accessing the MySQL server. Typically, max_connections is set to 1000. If max_connections is exceeded, database connection errors will be logged to the server log files and job processing will fail.
To set -database-client-max-connections for all HP Output Server servers in an HP Output Server domain, use the config_host command as follows:
config_host -u -x"-database-client-max-connections number"
To set -database-client-max-connections on an individual server or group of servers, use the config_server command. Any value set with config_server overrides a host-wide value set with config_host.

-database-server-password
On both UNIX and Windows systems, HP Output Server uses a host name and port to connect to a remote MySQL server.
If you installed HP Output Server without configuring the connection to the MySQL server, you can use the config_host command to set up the connection between HP Output Server and MySQL before configuring HP Output Server servers. In the following example, HP Output Server communicates with MySQL as root and with the password set to dazel. In this example, HP Output Server will use the nigel host name and port 3308 to communicate with the MySQL server on the remote host.
config_host -u -x"-database-server-user root -database-server-password dazel -database-server-hostname nigel -database-server-port 3308"
Typically, you will configure the MySQL connection with config_host before creating any servers. Because existing servers already have associated data in a database, you cannot simply update an existing HP Output Server host with config_host to point it to a new database server. You must also migrate the data. For more information about this process, consult your Professional Services representative.
To set -database-server-hostname on an individual server or group of servers when you create the server, use the config_server command. Any value set with config_server overrides a host-wide value set with config_host.
config_server -t serverType -x"-database-server-hostname hostName" serverName
Do not use config_server -u to point an existing server to a new database server without first migrating the data. For more information, consult your Professional Services representative.

On both UNIX and Windows systems, HP Output Server uses a host name and port to connect to a remote MySQL server.
For local MySQL servers, consider the following:
• On Windows, HP Output Server must use a port to connect to a local MySQL server.
• On UNIX, setting this attribute to connect to a local MySQL server is not allowed.
To set -database-server-port for all HP Output Server servers in an HP Output Server domain, use the config_host command as follows:
config_host -u -x"-database-server-port portNumber"

The -document-format-content-type multi-valued attribute maps an output document format to a MIME content type when sending e-mail in the MIME format. Each value of -document-format-content-type is a data structure that specifies an outputDocumentFormat and a contentString. The value of -document-format-content-type takes the following format:-document-format-content-type {outputDocumentFormat, contentString}

If the physical destination already has the attribute set and you want to add an additional mapping, use the following syntax:
pdset -c d -x"-+document-format-content-type {pdf, application/pdf}" physicalDestination
To determine the appropriate content type of a document sent as an e-mail attachment, the following attributes are checked in the following order:
-encoding-method
-output-content-type
-output-document-format (defined in the -document-format-content-type attribute)
-input-content-type
If the encoding method is binhex, the content type is set to application/mac-binhex40. If the encoding method is not set, each of the other attributes is considered one after another in the order listed above. If none of the attributes specify the content type, the content type is set to application/octet-stream.
If you use an HP Output Server template to create an e-mail physical destination, the -output-document-format-default attribute for the destination is set to pdf and one of the values of -document-format-content-type is {pdf, application/pdf}. This means that e-mail attachments sent to this destination are automatically converted to pdf, unless you set the -input-document-format attribute to literal or the -output-document-format attribute to a value other than pdf.

The -fax-phone-number-default single-valued attribute specifies the default telephone number of the receiving fax machine. Include PBX and/or long-distance access prefixes, such as 1 800 nnn nnnn or 9 1 010 nnn nnnn.
The -fax-phone-numbers-supported multi-valued attribute specifies the list of supported telephone numbers of receiving fax machines. Include PBX and/or long-distance access prefixes, such as 1 800 nnn nnnn or 9 1 010 nnn nnnn.
NOTE: If you use !{fax-phone-number}! with your personal dialing code (such as a Sprint or MCI number) before the fax number, your personal dialing code appears on the cover sheet.
You can also use the following destination attributes to specify prefix and suffix numbers. Setting one of these attributes on a destination appends the value to jobs sent to that destination.
• -fax-phone-number-prefix
• -fax-phone-number-long-distance-prefix
• -fax-phone-number-suffix
NOTE: Specify prefix and suffix numbers with -fax-phone-number or the *-prefix and *-suffix attributes, not both. If you set a prefix/suffix with both attributes, the prefix/suffix will be set twice, causing an error to occur.
You can use the following two methods to represent phone numbers for fax destinations:
• Specify phone numbers with -modem-phone-number and its related attributes.
• Specify phone numbers with -fax-phone-number and its related attributes.
For more information about representing phone numbers for fax destinations, see the System Administrator’s Guide for HP Output Server.

UNIX uses an octal representation for file permissions (the same permissions that the chmod(1) command uses). For example, a setting of 644 for the -file-permissions attribute allows read and write permission to the file owner, but only read permission for the group and others.
Windows uses the same octal representation, but only the owner-write-bit (bit 7, octal 200) has any effect. If the owner-write-bit is set, the file is created with read and write permission. If the owner-write-bit is not set, the file is created with read-only permission.

The -file-permissions-mask single-valued attribute specifies a permissions value in octal format. The default is 666. The -file-permissions-mask is bitwise-ANDed with -file-permissions to give the actual file permissions value. For example, if -file-permissions-mask is 770 and -file-permissions is 644, the destination file is created with permissions 640 (770 & 644), namely, rw-r-----.
On Windows, the bitwise AND is performed between the -file-permissions and -file-permissions-mask attributes, but the same permissions restrictions apply as those belonging to the -file-permissions attribute. Only bit 7 of the resulting permissions is used to determine if the file will be read/write or read-only.

The -footer-text multi-valued attribute specifies the text to print at the bottom of each page of a text document.
The -footer-text-default multi-valued attribute supplies a footer for text documents for which no footer has been specified with the -footer-text attribute.
NOTE: The -footer-text and -header-text attributes apply only to text documents.
You can specify text to print at the left margin of the page footer, in the center of the page footer, or at the right margin of the page footer. You must specify text to print or an empty string at the left margin of the page footer.
The following example illustrates the syntax of the -footer-text attribute. The position of each argument corresponds to its location in the page footer (left, center, or right). The left square bracket ([) and right square bracket (]) characters delimit optional arguments and the combination of a comma and a space separates arguments:
argument[, argument][, argument]
If you specify one argument, the value of that argument is displayed in the left location in the page footer. If you specify two arguments, the value of the first argument is displayed in the left location and the value of the second argument is displayed in the center location in the page footer. If you specify three arguments, the values are displayed in the left, center, and right locations in the page footer, respectively.
To display no text in the left, center, or right locations in a page footer, specify an argument with an escaped pair of quotation marks as in the following example:
-footer-text \"\"
If an argument contains non-alphanumeric characters, for example, an attribute variable or a space, delimit the argument with quotation marks. You can specify attribute variables in page footer arguments. The DSM replaces attribute variables with the value of the specified attribute.

HP Output Server
The -ghostscript-options single-valued attribute specifies additional document formatting options to pass to the Ghostscript program to change the way Ghostscript generates document output. The pdf_to_ps and ps_to_pdf transformers can use the formatting options specified with this attribute.
Set the-ghostscript-options attribute when using the pdpr command to deliver a document to HP Output Server. For example, to deliver doc.pdf to 1fax, specifying centering and best-fit rotation, type the following command:
pdpr -d 1fax -x"-ghostscript-options \"-dPDFFixedPage -dLandscapeOrient1\"" doc.pdf
The -ghostscript-options-default single-valued attribute specifies the default -ghostscript-options value.
Set this attribute at the physical or logical destination. The following example specifies centering and best-fit rotation on the p_printer physical destination:
pdset -c d -x"-ghostscript-options-default \"-dPDFFixedPage -dLandscapeOrient1\"" p_printer
Because Ghostscript offers numerous options that you can pass through the -ghostscript-options attribute, the following table’s list of valid values is not comprehensive.
An example of a specific use case is controlling the PDF output so that the output document is displayed correctly in Acrobat Reader. Documents converted with some versions of Ghostscript may not be displayed correctly in some versions of Acrobat Reader. To address this issue, you can set -ghostscript-options at the job to
\"-dPDFSETTINGS=/ printer\""
when you deliver the document with the pdpr command.
This value instructs Ghostscript to select an output similar to the Acrobat Distiller “Print Optimized” setting.

-group-by-attribute
HP Output Server
The -group-by-attribute single-valued attribute changes the scheduling method that the JQM uses to insert subjobs into a queue. It specifies a job or document attribute for the JQM to use to group subjobs before applying the queue’s default scheduling criteria. The value for -group-by-attribute is any job or document attribute, without the leading dash. For example: fax-phone-number.
NOTE: After setting this attribute, ensure that you restart the JQM that manages the queue.
The JQM first groups subjobs that share the same value for the specified jobs or document attribute, and then applies the queue’s default scheduling criteria to the group of subjobs and to the other subjobs in the queue.
For information about using this attribute with the -reserve-by-attribute so the JQM can group subjobs sent to the same physical destination in a device farm, see the -reserve-by-attribute.

Chapter 2 Attributes
-header-text-default
The following example illustrates the syntax of the -header-text attribute. The position of each argument corresponds to its location in the page header (left, center, or right). The left square bracket ([) and right square bracket (]) characters delimit optional arguments and the combination of a comma and a space separates arguments:
argument[, argument][, argument]
If you specify one argument, the value of that argument is displayed in the left location in the page header. If you specify two arguments, the value of the first argument is displayed in the left location and the value of the second argument is displayed in the center location in the page header. If you specify three arguments, the values are displayed in the left, center, and right locations in the page header, respectively.
To display no text in the left, center, or right locations in a page header, specify an argument with an escaped pair of quotation marks as in the following example:
-header-text \"\"
If an argument contains non-alphanumeric characters, for example, an attribute variable or a space, delimit the argument with quotation marks. You can specify attribute variables in page header arguments. The DSM replaces attribute variables with the value of the specified attribute.
For text documents sent to fax destinations, do not set any values for the -header-text attribute; also set an empty value for the -header-text-default attribute. Setting non-empty -header-text-default and -header-text values for text documents sent to fax destinations may cause unwanted multiple headers to appear on faxes.

If the -job-deadline-time attribute is not set, there is no limit to the length of time a job can attempt to complete.
If the job is in the retained state when the specified amount of time elapses, or if the job is in the processing state and completes successfully, then the -job-deadline-time attribute has no effect. If the job is in any other state when the deadline time occurs, or is in the processing state and completes unsuccessfully, then the job is removed from the queue and set to cancelled.

The -job-event-class single-valued job attribute specifies an additional job event class that is notified when you deliver a job with pdpr. Job events are reported to one of two event classes, ERP_SAP_CONNECT or ERP_SAP_OMS, for use with the SAPCON and OMSCB servers. These servers are configured with HP Output Manager for SAP. Job events will continue to be reported to the IDS_ALLJOBS class.
You can specify the ERP_SAP_CONNECT or ERP_SAP_OMS job event with both single-domain and interdomain delivery. If a job originates in a secondary domain, the job event is sent across the domain back to the originator of the job.

The -job-order-preserved single-valued attribute specifies if the JQM delivers jobs based on the queue’s scheduling method plus other considerations, or strictly on the queue’s scheduling method alone.
NOTE: After setting this attribute, ensure that you restart the JQM that manages the queue.
If the -job-order-preserved attribute is not set or is set to the default, false, the JQM dequeues subjobs (sends subjobs from queues to physical destinations) by selecting the subjob that is at the head of the queue and then considering whether the subjob is ready to be delivered. If the subjob is not ready to be delivered, the JQM selects the next subjob in the queue, and so forth. A subjob may not be ready to be delivered if the user who submits the subjob does not have permission to deliver to a destination when the job reaches the head of the queue, or if the specified delivery time is still in the future.
If you set the -job-order-preserved attribute to true, the JQM does not skip subjobs that are not ready to be delivered, and follows the queue’s scheduling method strictly. If the subjob at the head of the queue is not ready to be delivered, the JQM waits until the job is ready or the job is removed.
Setting the -job-order-preserved attribute to true is appropriate for applications that require strict job ordering, such as check printing.
CAUTION: The queue will become clogged if the -job-order-preserved attribute is set to true, if the FIFO queue scheduling method is used, or if the MIN_DEL_TIME and MAX_DEL_TIME permission rules are set and the job submission time is out of this range.

The -job-retention-period-limit single-valued attribute specifies the job-expiration time frame a JQM uses to build an internal list of jobs that require processing. If this attribute is not defined, the default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
Each JQM monitors asynchronous events that require processing, including job expiration. The JQM queries the database for a list of the jobs that will expire within the time frame defined by the -job-retention-period-limit. With the attribute set to the default, the JQM will query the database for all jobs that are due to expire within the next 30 minutes.
With the list of jobs built, the list grows smaller as jobs expire. When the -job-retention-period-limit is reached, the JQM queries the database for the next set of jobs set to expire within the -job-retention-period-limit. If no jobs are set to expire within this limit, the JQM does nothing until the limit is reached and the next list of jobs is built.
If the job list is large, the JQM’s memory usage can increase significantly. Setting the -job-retention-period-limit to a smaller value, such as 600 seconds (10 minutes), can decrease the number of jobs in the list and, as a result, the memory allocated to the task. A trade-off to setting the attribute to a value smaller than the default is that the JQM will query the database more frequently for expiring jobs.

The -logical-page-origin multi-valued attribute specifies the orientation of the logical page in terms of how the source page origin (the lower-left corner) maps to the logical page origin. The -logical-page-origin attribute defines a list of values, one for each logical page on the physical page.
The value of -logical-page-origin specifies the rotation of the logical page: lower-left: 0, lower-right: 90, upper-right: 180, upper-left: 270. All degrees are measured in a counter-clockwise rotation.
The resulting corner serves as the origin of the Logical Page Coordinate System (LPCS), from which the positioning of the page is specified with offsets. The logical page origin of each page is specified by -logical-page-x-offset, -logical-page-y-offset, and the size of each page by -logical-page-scaling. The values must proceed in order for each logical page.
For logical page functionality to work correctly, you must use all of the following four attributes together:
-logical-page-origin-logical-page-scaling-logical-page-x-offset-logical-page-y-offset

-logical-printers-assigned
The -logical-page-scaling, -logical-page-x-offset, and -logical-page-y-offset attributes work in conjunction with the -logical-page-origin attribute to map a source page to the logical page. All four attributes work together in the following order to provide logical page functionality:
1. The -logical-page-origin specifies the x-y origin (before rotation) of the physical page.
2. The image is moved as specified by the values of -logical-page-x-offset and -logical-page-y-offset.
3. Using the value of -logical-page-origin, the image is rotated.
The -logical-page-scaling multi-valued attribute lists values, one for each logical page on the physical page. Each value is a real number that specifies the size of the logical page image as a percentage of the original page image. A value of 1.0 is equal to 100 percent.
The -logical-page-x-offset multi-valued attribute lists values, one for each logical page on the physical page. Each value represents a real number of points (1/72 inch), measured from the LPCS origin along the x-axis. The values must proceed in sequence for each logical page. The nth -logical-page-x-offset and nth -logical-page-y-offset are paired to form the origin of the logical page.
The -logical-page-y-offset multi-valued attribute lists values, one for each logical page on the physical page. Each value represents a real number of points (1/72 inch), measured from the LPCS origin along the y axis. The values must proceed in order for each logical page.

Before a job is delivered to a printer, the job’s input tray and medium are determined by checking the following attributes in the following order:
-medium-select-input-tray-select-media-used-input-trays-used-medium-default-input-tray-default
When a job’s medium or input tray is determined, the -input-trays-medium attribute is consulted. The -input-trays-medium attribute maps input trays with media. If the job determines its medium, it checks the -input-trays-medium attribute to determine which tray is associated with the specified medium. If the job cannot define the missing value with the -input-trays-medium attribute, it searches the remaining attributes until it determines both values.
If none of these attributes set the input tray, it defaults to what is set at the printer. If none of the attributes define the paper type, then the value is either north-american-letter-white (8.5 by 11 inches) or iso-a4-white (21 by 29.7 centimeters), depending on your HP Output Server configuration.
Because specifying the medium determines the size page the device uses, the setting for the -media-used attribute affects how the physical destination computes the -page-layout attribute and how it determines which input tray to use. See also the -medium-select and -page-size attributes.

Chapter 2 Attributes
-notification-profile-default
The -notification-profile-default multi-valued attribute specifies a default value for the -notification-profile attribute.
With the -notification-profile attribute, you enable a notice to trigger the creation of new notices (class,instance,recipient) to send to people or services who do not receive them otherwise. In other words, you can designate notice recipients for specific job-related events, such as job completion.
If you do not set the -notification-profile or -operator-notification-profile attributes, all events are still delivered to the Event Manager (EM), which then distributes the event notices to subscribers.
The syntax for the data type EventHandlingProfile is as follows:
-notification-profile {{event [, ...]}, deliveryMethod, message,address} [, ...]
The event can be an event-class or an individual event, or several of either. The method can be none, electronic-mail (or e-mail), or notification-service (through the EM). You can turn off a notification while keeping its configuration by using the none value for method. The address is either an e-mail address or user name (for notification-service). The format is the same for UNIX and Windows.
The following is an example of setting the -notification-profile attribute so that it sends e-mail notification of multiple messages to the [email protected].
NOTE: The multiple values within the examples must be contained in an additional set of brackets.
-notification-profile "{{aborted, error, warning, report-job-completed,
report-job-resumed, report-processing-started}, electronic-mail, \"Example of Message\", [email protected]}"

Objects All Objects
Data Type Text
The -order-by-attributes multi-valued attribute specifies additional attributes by which to sort when adding jobs to a queue, letting you customize a queue’s scheduling method.
Each value of -order-by-attributes is a data structure that specifies an attribute by which to sort and a sort order (ascending or descending) for that attribute. The value of -order-by-attributes takes the following format:
-order-by-attributes {attributeName, sortOrder}
Consider the following example. If the qmarketing queue uses the FIFO scheduling method, setting -order-by-attributes to {total-job-octets, ascending} changes the queue’s scheduling method from FIFO to shortest subjob first:
pdset -c q -x"-order-by-attributes \"{total-job-octets, ascending}\"" qmarketing
Sorting specified by -order-by-attributes is considered before the queue’s implicit scheduling method (defined by the value of the queue’s -scheduler-assigned attribute). However, the sorting specified by -order-by-attributes does not replace the queue’s implicit scheduling method. If you specify two values for -order-by-attributes, jobs are sorted in this order:
1. by the first value of -order-by-attributes
2. by the second value
3. by the queue’s implicit scheduling method
4. subjob creation time
The sorting order also depends on the sorting attribute’s data type. That is, text attributes are sorted alphabetically, and integer attributes are sorted numerically. Consider the following example of using job ID as a sorting attribute. The DLM assigns the

HP Output Server
Chapter 2 Attributes
-poll-arguments
With -pm-id-mode set to dazel, HP Output Server relies on the authentication mechanisms within external environments, such as the Windows operating system or SAP R/3, to ensure the user’s identity. This compensates for the differences in how users and groups are defined in different operating environments.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you use the default, which is Dazel ID mode (dazel).
With -pm-id-mode set to unix, HP Output Server obtains user and group information from the underlying UNIX operating system on which HP Output Server is installed. The PM accesses the group and user information that has already been defined in your UNIX environment. Use UNIX ID mode only if your HP Output Server installation runs solely on UNIX hosts.
If the PM runs in UNIX ID mode, you cannot use pm_edit or the Privilege Administrator to maintain user membership in groups. For the PM to operate in UNIX mode, you must set up the groups in the /etc/groups file and then set the PM’s -pm-id-mode attribute to unix as follows:

Valid Values none, brief, verbose, all, or individual, comma-separated attributes
HP Output Server
The -reserve-by-attribute single-valued attribute changes how the JQM dequeues subjobs, that is, how it sends subjobs from queues to physical destinations. The -reserve-by-attribute attribute specifies a job or document attribute that one or more subjobs in a queue may share. The value is any job attribute, without the leading dash. For example: fax-phone-number. As the JQM dequeues subjobs, it attempts to send subjobs that share the same specified job or document attribute to the same physical destination.
NOTE: After setting this attribute, ensure that you restart the JQM that manages the queue.
The JQM only considers subjobs, or groups of subjobs, that are at the head of the queue when it selects a physical destination. Therefore, if you set both -group-by-attribute and -reserve-by-attribute on a queue, the JQM can send a group of subjobs to the same physical destination.
An example is sending a series of documents to a fax farm. If you set the value of group-by-attribute and -reserve-by-attribute to fax-phone-number, the JQM sends documents that share the same value for the -fax-phone-number attribute to a single fax device, allowing the fax device to fax several documents to the same phone number without redialing the number each time.

HP Output Server
The -server-log-level multi-valued attribute defines the types of messages generated by HP Output Server processes during execution. These messages are divided into eight categories that describe the importance of the information. The categories, from most to least important, are emergency, critical, alert, error, warning, notice, info and debug. You can select multiple categories by separating them with a comma.
There are three predefined groups of categories: all, terse, and none. Selecting all causes the server to log every category of message. The terse grouping causes the server to log only messages of the highest importance (emergency through error). Specifying none causes the server to not log any messages.
Add logging categories to a group by separating them with commas, for example, terse,notice causes a server to log messages at levels emergency through error as well as notice-level messages. Prepending the level name with a dash causes the server to not log that level of messages even if the group name would normally, for example, all,-debug causes a server to log all categories of messages except debug.
During initial configuration and when diagnosing a problem, setting the -server-log-level attribute to all helps when trying to solve delivery conflicts and other problems. Set this attribute with the config_server command.

For example, if your HP Output Server configuration includes six JQM servers, four DLM servers, and 14 DSM servers on the same host, and the -server-startup-limit attribute is set to 5, the start_server command attempts to start servers in the following manner:
1. JQM servers one through five
2. JQM server six
3. Five DLM or DSM servers (selected randomly)
The start_server command repeats Step 3 until it completes its attempts to start all of the DLM and DSM servers.
You can also modify the value of the -server-startup-limit attribute using the config_host command.

-supervisor-ping-interval
-supervisor-ping-interval
Data Type Time (UTC)
HP Output Server
The -supervisor-ping-interval single-valued attribute specifies how frequently a DSM reregisters a physical destination with a JQM’s queue. Registering a physical destination with the JQM indicates that the DSM can receive a job. If you restart a JQM, it is unaware of the DSM until the DSM contacts it at the -supervisor-ping-interval.
The default -supervisor-ping-interval is 60 seconds. For large installations under normal operations, consider setting the -supervisor-ping-interval to 300 (5 minutes). This higher setting reduces CPU usage because of the reduced communication between DSMs and JQMs.
Setting the -supervisor-ping-interval attribute to 0 turns reregistering off. If a JQM goes down in this case, you must first restart it. Then, you must either initialize or shut down and restart any affected DSMs. This instructs the DSM to register its physical destinations with their associated queues. Affected DSMs are those that manage physical destinations receiving jobs from queues on the JQM that went down.
For information about setting the retry registration interval during error conditions, see the -supervisor-retry-interval attribute.

If the server cannot link to or reference the file, it attempts to obtain a copy of the file from the client. This function is equivalent to specifying dce-rpc-pipe as the value for the -transfer-method attribute.
If you submit a job and specify transfer-document-with-job-request as the value for the -transfer-method attribute, a copy of the files in the job is transferred to the DLM with the job request. If the file size of a document in the job is large, the pdpr command can dump core on the client. When this happens, the files associated with the job are not transferred to the DLM spool area on the server. To avoid dumping core on the client when you set -transfer-method to transfer-document-with-job-request, HP recommends that the file size of each document in the job not exceed 1 MB.

-use-ps-filter
If the -use-pjl-filter attribute is false (the default), the DSM does not filter PCL or PostScript input files with the pcl_pjl_filter or ps_pjl_filter transformers.
NOTE: To filter only specified PJL commands, use the -use-selective-pjl-filter attribute.
The -use-pjl-filter-default single-valued attribute provides a default value for the -use-pjl-filter attribute. Set this attribute at the logical destination.
The -use-pjl-filters-supported attribute identifies whether a DSM server filters PCL or PostScript documents to remove PJL codes. Set this attribute at DSM servers on which you define the pcl_pjl_filter or ps_pjl_filter transformers.
You must define the pcl_pjl_filter or ps_pjl_filter transformers at the DSM server before using the -use-pjl-filter attribute. The following command defines the transformers at a DSM named dsm2:

The -use-selective-pjl-filter multi-valued document attribute enables the pcl_selective_pjl_filter or ps_selective_pjl_filter transformer. Both pcl_selective_pjl_filter and ps_selective_pjl_filter are productions that remove specified PJL commands from a document.
With -use-selective-pjl-filter set, the DSM uses pcl_selective_pjl_filter or ps_selective_pjl_filter to filter PCL or PostScript input files. The filter interprets the value of -use-selective-pjl-filter as a case-insensitive string and searches for a match.
NOTE: Only PJL commands inside Universal Escape Language (UEL) sequences are tested for a match.
If a match is found, the PJL command is changed so that it does not interfere with normal job processing.
For example, a document may contain PJL commands that must be sent to the printer for the document to be processed correctly but may also contain the @PJL JOB NAME command. The @PJL JOB NAME command must be removed, because it interferes with normal HP Output Server job processing.

-use-selective-pjl-filter-default
To disable the @PJL JOB NAME command in a document sent with pdpr, use the following syntax:
pdpr -d printerName -x"-use-selective-pjl-filter \"job name\"" documentName
NOTE: To remove all PJL commands from a job, set the -use-pjl-filter attribute to true.
The -use-selective-pjl-filter-default attribute provides a default value for the -use-selective-pjl-filter attribute. For example, to disable the @PJL JOB NAME command in all documents sent to a destination, set this attribute on a logical or physical destination as follows:
pdset -c d -x'-use-selective-pjl-filter-default "job name"' destinationName
The -transformer-priority of the pcl_selective_pjl_filter and ps_selective_pjl_filter are set to a value that ensures the PJL filter productions are applied before any other PostScript or PCL filters.
Before using -use-selective-pjl-filter, ensure that the pcl_selective_pjl_filter and ps_selective_pjl_filter transformers are added to the physical destination’s managing server. To view the list of transformers configured for a DSM, type the following:

-use-server-features
-use-server-features
HP Output Server
The -use-server-features multi-valued attribute instructs HP Output Server to perform feature processing itself if a device does not support the advanced features. With -use-server-features set on an advanced physical destination, the DSM performs the feature processing instead of relying on the instructions in the printer’s capabilities ticket.
NOTE: The -use-server-features attribute is not set by default on certified advanced printer templates. To enable this functionality, you must set the attribute manually on a specific physical destination.
The collate value for -use-server-features instructs HP Output Server to send the document multiple times when multiple copies are specified for the job. This is the method that HP Output Server uses to support collating for all static printers except those with -printer-model set to hp_pjl or lexmark_pjl. For these multi-function static printers, the document is sent only once and the PJL QTY command is used to generate multiple copies. The capabilities ticket for an advanced printer may also contain an invocation string to process collated copies in this way.
The -use-server-features collate setting is useful if the printer is unable to handle collated copies because, for example, the printer has insufficient memory or is a low-end model. Setting -use-server-features to collate restores the collating functionality.
CAUTION: Do not set this attribute if the advanced printer does support collating and uses an invocation string. In this case, with this attribute set and a request for n multiple copies, both HP Output Server and the printer will perform the collating. This results in n*n printed copies.
The -use-server-features attribute applies to advanced delivery pathways only. For more information about advanced printers and advanced delivery pathways, see the System Administrator’s Guide for HP Output Server.

-user-filter-force-attr-mods
Each physical destination has a single, optional user filter associated with it. Logical destinations do not have filters associated with them. By setting the -user-filter-program attribute to the full path name of the executable, for example /home/jdoe/filter, you instruct the physical device to invoke the filter for each document it receives. Using an attribute variable substitution such as !{dazel-install-directory}! is allowed. To turn off the user filter, reset the -user-filter-program attribute.
By setting the -user-filter-output-format attribute to a format that HP Output Server supports, you can inform the DSM of the format of the data output from the user filter, or you can allow the DSM to “guess” the format.
The -user-filter-arguments and -user-filter-output-format-variants attributes are both multi-valued attributes, and the others are single-valued attributes. Attribute replacement is performed on the -user-filter-arguments attribute before these arguments are passed to the -user-filter-program attribute.

A job is a request to deliver one or more documents to one or more destinations. The JQM manages jobs. You can set attributes for a job or for individual documents within the job. Job attributes apply to the entire job, but document attributes can have different settings for each document. Attributes are parsed left to right, affecting how you place the job and document attributes.
Job attributes
Job attributes affect all of the documents in the job. If a command specifies a job attribute more than once in a command, the value on the far right is used. You can set the following attributes for jobs:Table A-4. Job attributes

Transformer class
Transformer class
HP Output Server
The DSM’s transformer framework converts a document from its input document format to an output document format appropriate to a specific device. This type of transformer is termed a translation or transformation. Additionally, transformers can modify a document’s layout or placement without changing the document’s format. This type of transformer is termed a production. Converting text to PostScript is an example of a translation; number-up and duplexing are examples of productions.
Attributes in the transformer class let you configure external processes that transform documents. You can use transformer attributes to override transformations handled internally by the DSM.
