OPENQ

The device name of the spooled device. devname must begin with a letter and consist of 8 or fewer alphanumeric characters. Note that it is not possible to have a device class name and a device that are the same. If you enter an alphanumeric character string, the command searches the device class list first, and then the device name list.

The SHOW parameter displays the current state (enabled or disabled) of the devices specified with the OPENQ command. If the spooling queues are globally disabled, the SHOW option displays this information.

The @ parameter globally reenables all currently open spooling queues that were disabled because the system ran out of domain disk space, a file limit was encountered on the HPSPOOL account or its groups, or the SHUTQ @ command was entered.

If the spooling queues were disabled globally because the system is out of disk space or a file limit was encountered on the HPSPOOL account or its groups, the problem should be resolved before globally enabling spooling queues with the OPENQ @ command.

When you issue the OPENQ @ command, the following message is displayed on the system console:

   ALL SPOOLING QUEUES CURRENTLY OPEN HAVE BEEN ENABLED.

When you issue the OPENQ device command where device is a logical device number, a device name class or a device name, while the spooling queues are globally disabled, you see the following message:

   SPOOLING QUEUE OPENED FOR DEVICE device, BUT NOT IN

   EFFECT SINCE THE SPOOLING QUEUES ARE GLOBALLY DISABLED.

   (CIWARN 4625)

Refer to appendix B for more discussion on global enabling and disabling of spooling queues.

Use the @ option without any other parameter. The SHOW option entered with the @ option returns an error.
