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/Linux application servers for the new secondary.

If you create an array or change the primary Secure Global Desktop server in an array, you must re-configure the printers on your Windows NT 4 and NT 3.51 application servers so that they 'point to' the new primary server.
