SystemConfigure Remote Printing for High Availability

In a Loftware Enterprise SP environment using distributed services, you can configure for high availability of distributed services in Loftware Enterprise SP, including devices that are configured for use with a remote site. You can also configure these device services to be able to fail over among Loftware Application Servers so that if one or more servers go offline, a standby server or servers begin running the associated services to minimize any interruption for users.

To configure remote printing for high availability, use the following procedure.

  1. Configure a Remote Site in Loftware Enterprise SP. For more information, see Configure a Remote Site.
  2. Install the LPA on the remote computer. For more information, see Install the Loftware Print Agent
  3. Repeat the steps in Install the Loftware Print Agent to install the LPA on another remote computer, using the same Site Token and Remote Site Name.
  4. Add the system property so that you can manage Remote Site device services in Loftware Enterprise SP. For more information, see Manage Remote Site Device Services.
  5. Configure the Remote Site device services for high availability and failover. For more information, see Configure for High Availability and Configure for Failover.
