Starting and Stopping XPPS Archiver

Under JES2, an XPPS archiver FSA can be started in one of the following ways:

• An operator can enter the START DEVICE JES2 command.
• When JES2 is brought up, XPPS archival starts automatically if the PRTnnnn statement for the printer FSA contains the START parameter.

  Under JES3, an XPPS archiver FSA can be started in one of the following ways:

• An operator can enter the START WRITER JES3 command.
• JES3 starts the XPPS archival when printing is scheduled for a printer FSA.

If you do not want archival to stop after each job, you can define the FSS as a JES3 hot writer, keeping the address space active.

The XPPS archival FSA differs from other printers because it can only be started and stopped. Positioning commands such as commands that interrupt a printer, like forward space or backspace, cannot be used.
