Creating Printer on x64 Win2k8 Cluster


hi,

i in search of ideas on how bulk create 500 print queues on clustered x64 win 2k8 server.

manual approach works using print management via fialover cluster manager (after have ensured 64bit , 32bit additional  print drivers find way local printer driver database)

the standalone version of script creates printer port way (pseudocode)
$port = ([wmiclass]\\$hostname\root\cimv2:win32_tcpipprinterport).createinstance()

how can thesame cluster ? have gone fas referencing mscluster namespace, cannot figure out class reference create instance of port in cluster

$port = ([wmiclass]\\$clustername\root\mscluster: ????????? ).createinstance()

help appreciated.

regards
d

hi,

as far know, there no built-in method script printers on cluster.

to workaround this, please try install printer on standalone server , migrate server?
