Parameters
ldev The logical device number of the spooled device.
devclass The device class name of the spooled devices. devclass must begin with a
letter and consist of eight or fewer alphanumeric characters.
devname The device name of the spooled device. devname must begin with a letter
and consist of eight or fewer alphanumeric characters. Note that it is not
possible to have a device class name and a device name that are the same.
If you enter an alphanumeric character string, the command searches the
device class list first, and then the device name list.
START OUTPUT SPOOLERS:
The START parameter creates and activates a new spooler process to own
and manage the device and print spool files destined for it. If a class is
specified, then a spooling process is created and activated for each device
in the class. If neither the OPENQ nor the SHUTQ option is specified, OPENQ
is taken as the default.
INPUT SPOOLERS:
The START parameter creates and activates a new spooler process to own
and manage the device, to read data from it, and to create job or data input
spool files for later processing by a CI (job) or user process (data). If a class
is specified, then a spooling process is created and activated for each device
in the class.
STOP OUTPUT SPOOLERS:
