Cluster, configuring the printer spool

When you start to configure the printer spool in a cluster you might follow the Microsoft doc about it, it's easy to follow and you'll avoid failures in the future.

Basically you will have to add the spooler as a group resource into de cluster, but not using the standard one called "Group resource" but creatinga a new one with another name.

The drivers must be installed in some places:
- In the cluster itself (the lcoation is the network resource og the resource group)
- In every node of the cluster: It means that you will install the printer drivers in as much as servers are part of the cluster

And take into account the LPT port, becasue is a local port.

Windows, command > Process

Here some notes about the usefull command line.

If you have a process that is using a high amount ofthe resources, as CPU time or memory, some workaround is to find which files/drives is using. Once you'll have the PID (you can get it from task manager) just query it using Tlist:

Tlist PID

Ie> Tlist 1885

It will appear the path that started the process and some files associated.

For getting a list of the current process just run:

Tlist
Tasklist
