Update Procedure

09/10/02- ClusterQue version 3.31_65: 

ClusterQue v. 3.31_65 for Windows servers includes an updated POSIX subsystem (Interix) from Microsoft.  You may opt to upgrade ClusterQue without upgrading the POSIX subsystem.  LBM Systems and Microsoft currently support both versions of Interix.  There are some performance improvements with the new version of Interix, but if you are satisfied with ClusterQue's performance you are not required to upgrade at this time.

To update ClusterQue and the POSIX subsystem (Interix):

1.  Obtain the necessary files from LBM Systems or your authorized ClusterQue reseller.  Email LBM for access to these files.

2.  Back up your printdef and ulpdef files found in C:\Interix\usr\spool\uprint.

3.  Note:  you will need to reboot the server to complete this upgrade.  Stop the UniquePrintServer service (note that clients will not be able to submit jobs to ClusterQue while the service is stopped).  Next stop the Print Spooler service.

4.  Insert the CD into your machine and follow the installation instructions.  If you have downloaded, run setup.exe and follow the installation instructions.

5.  Interix will install first, do not reboot after installing Interix.  After ClusterQue installs, select the option to reboot.

6.  The service will restart automatically after rebooting and your printer/cluster definitions will remain intact.

To update ClusterQue only:

1.  Obtain the necessary files from LBM Systems or your authorized ClusterQue reseller.  Email LBM for access to these files.

2.  Back up your printdef and ulpdef files found in C:\Interix\usr\spool\uprint.

3.  Follow instructions on the ClusterQueUpdate.PDF file to run the update.  Note that during the update process you will need to stop the UniquePrintServer service; users will not be able to submit jobs to ClusterQue while the service is stopped.

4.  Run the install program as described on the ClusterQueUpdate.PDF file.

5.  Once you have finished updating, restart the UniQuePrintServer service.
