MGMTMODE
Set to OUTAVAIL. OUTAVAIL requests that PSF start a
communications session with the printer only when output is
available on the JES spool.
FAILURE
Specifies the action PSF/MVS is to take after a printer failure or a
TCP/IP network failure. If FAILURE=WCONNECT and the printer is
connected to another host when PSF/MVS attempts to establish a
connection on TCP/IP, PSF/MVS continuously retries (up to the
limit specified by CONNINTV) until the printer becomes available.
FAILURE=STOP stops the attempt to connect to the printer.
TIMEOUT
Specifies the action that PSF/MVS is to take after a timeout when
no output is available on JES. The DISCINTV parameter specifies
the timeout interval. TIMEOUT=REDRIVE requests that PSF/MVS
redrive the printer FSA using the value of the MGMTMODE
parameter. TIMEOUT=STOP requests that PSF/MVS stop the
printer FSA, which can then be restarted only by an operator
command.
DISCINTV
Specifies the disconnect interval in seconds. The value can range
from zero through 86400. IBM suggests you set the value to 15.
When no output is available from JES for this time period, PSF/
MVS ends the session with the network printer. If the value is set to
zero, PSF/MVS does not end the session because of lack of output.
NOTE: PSF/MVS supports two other methods of printer sharing,
which are not applicable to IBM 10/100Base-T Ethernet
Interface printers. VTAM RELREQ is available for printer
sharing under SNA. Port switching is available for SNA-
and TCP/IP-attached printers when a printer can support
multiple active ports.
