Assigns, or redirects, a logical queue to a single execution queue. The ASSIGN/QUEUE command can be used only with printer or terminal queues. Requires manage (M) access to both queues. Format ASSIGN/QUEUE queue-name[:] logical-queue-name[:]
1 – Parameters
queue-name[:] Specifies the name of the execution queue. The queue cannot be a logical queue, a generic queue, or a batch queue. logical-queue-name[:] Specifies the name of the logical queue.
2 – Examples
1.$ INITIALIZE/QUEUE/DEFAULT=FLAG=ONE/START LPA0 $ INITIALIZE/QUEUE TEST_QUEUE $ ASSIGN/QUEUE LPA0 TEST_QUEUE $ START/QUEUE TEST_QUEUE This example first initializes and starts the printer queue LPA0. The LPA0 queue is set to have a flag page precede each job. The second INITIALIZE/QUEUE command creates the logical queue TEST_QUEUE. The ASSIGN/QUEUE command assigns the logical queue TEST_QUEUE to the printer queue LPA0. The START/QUEUE command starts the logical queue. 2.$ INITIALIZE/QUEUE/START LPB0 The ASSIGN/QUEUE command is not needed in this example because a logical queue is not being initialized. A printer queue is being initialized; LPB0 is the name of a line printer. After you enter the INITIALIZE/QUEUE/START command, jobs can be queued to LPB0 for printing.
