 There exist two types of queues depeding on the way they are initialized and started:
-* '''autostart''' queues are initialized with /AUTOSTART_ON and started with ENABLE AUTOSTART/QUEUES (a single command for all autostart queues)
+* '''[[Autostart Queue|autostart]]''' queues are initialized with /AUTOSTART_ON and started with ENABLE AUTOSTART/QUEUES (a single command for all autostart queues)
 * '''non-autostart''' queues are initialized with /ON and started with START/QUEUE (one command per queue)

 Queues can be stopped with the STOP/QUEUE command. When executed without qualifiers, this command only pauses a queue. To stop a queue completely, include one of the following qualifiers:
 * /NEXT stops the queue after all executing jobs have completed
 * /RESET abruptly stops the queue and returns control to the system

New page

A '''queue''' is a construct in OpenVMS that helps process batch and print jobs. [[Entry|Jobs]] are organized in queues for sequential execution. Queues are controlled with [[Queue manager|queue managers]]. Information about queues is stored in the [[Queue database|queue database]].

=Types of queues=
There are '''generic''' and '''execution''' queues. Execution queues do the actual processing (printing or batch processing). Generic queues manage the assignment of jobs to execution queues.

==Print queues==
Print queues enable processing of jobs by a printer. There are generic and execution print queues. Each execution print queue is associated with a printer.

==Batch queues==
Batch queues enable processing of batch jobs - [[command procedures]] submitted for execution in a [[batch process]] on your behalf.

=Displaying queues=
You can display queues on your system with the [[SHOW QUEUE]] command.

=Creating queues=
You can create queues with the [[INITIALIZE/QUEUE]] command.

=Deleting queues=
To delete a print or batch queue, use the [[DELETE/QUEUE]] command.
