A queue is a construct in OpenVMS that helps process batch and print jobs. Jobs are organized in queues for sequential execution. Queues are controlled with queue managers. Information about queues is stored in the queue database.
Contents
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.
Modifying queues
You can change queue settings by stopping it and starting it while specifying the new qualifiers.
Starting queues
You can start a queue with the START/QUEUE command.
