Navigation:  steadyPRINT Reliability > Functional Testing of Print Server (Last update of this topic: 12-02-2021)

General

During the run time of a print server or its failover partner, a variety of possible errors can occur. steadyPRINT therefore checks the most frequent ones in an adjustable interval.

 

This includes the following errors:

 

 

 

1 Compare Warming up time of print spooler
2 These values (in megabyte) can be changed via entries to the database.
 

Setting options

For this test, the following 9 parameters can be modified via the Performance Profiles (see figure Setting for functional testing of print server).

 

Figure  155: Setting for functional testing of print server

 

1 Interval in seconds in which the print servers check the free hard disk space of the partner server.

2 Interval in seconds in which the print servers check the free working memory of the partner server.

3 Minimum free hard disk space. In case a lower value is identified, an error message will be sent.

4 Minimum free working memory. In case a lower value is identified, an error message will be sent.

5 Number of trials until the spooler of the backup print server is recognized as offline.

6 Number of trials until the spooler of the master print server is recognized as offline.

7 Interval in seconds in which the print servers check the mutual operational capability.
8 Number of trials until the steadyPRINT Server of the backup print server is recognized as offline.
9 Number of trials until the partner server is recognized as offline (Check via Ping)

 

 

If an error occurs during one of the tests, an email notification will be issued.

The e-mail profile can be saved in the settings of the print server to be tested (see figure E-mail profile in case of errors in functional testing).
