Hpdps Commands - HP 9000 User Manual

Command Reference

HPDPS Commands

HPDPS Commands
The HPDPS commands create, modify, and delete objects, and may also
return status and other information about the objects. Additionally,
there are commands that serve as utilities.
As a general guideline, commands can be sub-divided into those
primarily for users and those primarily for administrators.
Administrator capability is required to run the administrator commands.
Table 3-2, "HPDPS User Commands," lists the user HPDPS commands
and Table 3-3, "HPDPS Administrator Commands," lists the
administrator HPDPS commands. All HPDPS commands begin with pd.
You may need to be authorized to use HPDPS commands. For more
information on authorization, see "Authorization" in this chapter as well
as the HP Distributed Print Service Administration Guide.
For a complete description of each HPDPS command, see the appropriate
NOTE
manpage. Enter:
