Dynamic attributes

Dynamic attributes are configuration attributes that are stored in the system configuration definition in the Printer Inventory. When dynamic configuration is enabled, you can change the dynamic attributes while Infoprint Server is running. If you change an attribute, with a few exceptions, the new value takes effect when you save the change. A few attributes require that you stop and restart the daemon or daemons that use the attribute before the change can take effect.

Table 1 lists the dynamic attributes, the name of the field on the Infoprint Server System Configuration ISPF panel that you use to specify the attribute, and whether you need to restart any Infoprint Server daemons before a change you make can take effect.

Table 1. Dynamic attributes and ISPF field names

Table 2 lists the attributes that you can specify in the system configuration definition, the equivalent attributes in the aopd.conf and aopmsg.conf files, and the equivalent environment variables in the aopstart EXEC. If dynamic configuration is enabled, Infoprint Server uses the dynamic attributes in the system configuration definition and ignores the equivalent attributes in the aopd.conf and aopmsg.conf files and the equivalent environment variables in the aopstart EXEC.

Note: These attributes do not apply to IP PrintWay basic mode: aopoutd-max-thread-tasks, applid, ignore-dcf-routing-errors, ipsmode, mail-do-not-add-suffixes, mail-preserve-suffixes, mail-use-first-address, mailer-path-name, mailer-options, and select-work-from-hold-queue. To configure IP PrintWay basic mode, specify the equivalent environment variable (if one exists) in the IP PrintWay basic mode startup procedure, regardless of whether dynamic configuration is enabled.
