Re: Problems with OVRPRTF

JD,

I'm not at a box to test it but is it possible that there are two printer
files with the same name on your system?  The override would affect the
(first) one in the user's library list while the system might be using a
specific one, one that is different from the one being overridden.

How about looking for all of them and then doing a CHGPRTF to make it a
permanent change.

Subject: Problems with OVRPRTF

Hi All,

I had an idea this morning to setup an OVRPRTF for the spool file QPMHAMI.
 I want to redirect this spoolfile to an OUTQ we have that automatically
emails the print to the current user.  This spool file is generated when
you press F6 to print an error when viewing an error message.

It seems no matter what I do I cannot get the override to work.

We have a generic OVRPRTF for each user that sends *PRTF to the closest
printer.  This is where the QPMHAMI files are going as well.

This is the OVRPRTF I used for QPMHAMI:
OVRPRTF    FILE(QPMHAMI) OUTQ(AUTOEMAILQ) HOLD(*NO) SECURE(*YES)
                 OVRSCOPE(*CALLLVL) SHARE(*YES) OPNSCOPE(*JOB)

This is the catch all OVRPRTF for *PRTF:
OVRPRTF FILE(*PRTF) OUTQ(&PRTL/&PRTQ) HOLD(&HOLD4)

I have tried many variations of OVRSCOPE and OPNSCOPE for QPMHAMI and all
with the same results.  I must be missing something obvious.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
JD
