Infoprint XT resource directories for the load process

IBM Infoprint XT for z/OS
GI11-9492-01

Several directory-related actions occur when you use Infoprint XT to load Xerox resources:

AFP resource directory
Infoprint XT creates a directory for the AFP versions of Xerox font, image, logo, and form resources. You control the directory that Infoprint XT creates when you enter the pdxtloadres command. The AFP resource directory is one of these:
/var/pdxt/resources/common
This is the common Infoprint XT resource directory.
/var/pdxt/resources/resgrp
You can specify an Infoprint XT directory for a specific group of resources. resgrp is a name you choose.
/OtherDirectory
You can also specify a separate, existing directory on the z/OS system.
Metrics directory
For each type of Xerox resource that you load, Infoprint XT creates a related metrics file. This file contains information about the resource that Infoprint XT uses to reduce processing time when it converts a Xerox job that uses the resource. The directory in which Infoprint XT writes the metrics file depends on the load options. The metrics directory is one of these:
  • /var/pdxt/resources/common/metrics
  • /var/pdxt/resources/resgrp/metrics
  • /OtherDirectory/metrics
Xerox resource directory
For all resources that successfully load, Infoprint XT copies the original Xerox resource to the system. The directory in which Infoprint XT writes the Xerox resources depends on the load options. The Xerox resource directory is one of these:
  • /var/pdxt/resources/common/xrxres
  • /var/pdxt/resources/resgrp/xrxres
  • /OtherDirectory/xrxres
Resource samples directory
When you sample AFP overlays from Xerox FRM resources or create color samples, Infoprint XT creates a directory to contain the generated sample jobs. The directory where Infoprint XT saves the resource samples depends on the load options. The resource samples directory is one of these:
  • /var/pdxt/resources/common/samples
  • /var/pdxt/resources/resgrp/samples
  • /OtherDirectory/samples
Note: Use these directory definitions when Infoprint XT procedures direct you to do actions that involve the AFP resource directory, metrics directory, Xerox resource directory, or resource samples directory.
