Secure Global Desktop Administration Guide > Printing > If the array changes, do I have to re-configure printing?
When you make changes to an array of Secure Global Desktop servers, printers are not reconfigured and so print jobs may be wrongly directed. When you make an array change, a warning message displays advising you that you may have re-configure your printers manually. The warning displays when:
Whether you have to re-configure or not, depends on the application server and the change made:
Application server type | New array | New primary | New secondary |
---|---|---|---|
UNIX | No | No | Yes |
Windows 2000/2003 | No | No | No |
Windows NT 4 | Yes | Yes | No |
Windows NT 3.51 | Yes | Yes | No |
If you add a new secondary Secure Global Desktop server, you must install a new printer on your UNIX application servers for the new secondary.
