ExtremeZ-IP 5.1 (Released: October 2007)
ENHANCEMENTS:
* Introduced the ExtremeZ-IP Zidget: a Dashboard widget that helps you easily locate ExtremeZ-IP file servers and printers on your network.. [#8520] [5.1x21]
* Added support for IPv6 to the service. The service can now communicate with remote printers over IPv6 or IPv4. [#7863] [5.1x05]
* The number of print queues is no longer bound by available memory of the server. In previous version of ExtremeZ-IP, the service was limited to several hundred print queues due to high memory and thread usage per queue. ExtremeZ-IP 5.1 has been qualified to run with 1500 print queues, and having this large number of print queues does not consume a large amount of memory or CPU resources. In addition, the file server will now be more responsive when the print server is under heavy load. [#7852] [5.1x06]
* Added capability for print queues to be renamed via the ExtremeZ-IP Administrator. Any jobs already in the queue will be processed after the rename, but jobs being received to the queue may be transferred to the new queue. [#8168] [5.1x06]
* Added capability to specify a text based description and location for each print queue, and display this information in the Print Queues window of the ExtremeZ-IP Administrator. [#8169] [5.1x06]
* Added a warning to the Windows Event Log if ExtremeZ-IP is configured to have more than 100 print queues and Bonjour or Appletalk broadcasting of print queues is enabled. Group Logic does not suggest that broadcasting of print queues be enabled with more than 100 print queues because this can make printer discovery very difficult to navigate for clients. [#8150] [5.1x05]
* Added capability to suspend and restart print queues using the EZIPUTIL command-line utility. [#8885] [5.1x39]
BUG FIXES:
* Fixed a potential crash of the ExtremeZ-IP service when a queue was configured with a PPD file with inconsistent line endings. [#8843] [5.1x37]
* Fixed job cancellation button in the ExtremeZ-IP Administrator so that hung jobs can be promptly cancelled. [#8369] [5.1x13]
* Fixed a problem where print queues whose name contain open or close parentheses would not have their PPD files automatically downloaded by the ExtremeZ-IP Print Components. [#8839] [5.1x37]
* Removing a print queue now causes any jobs persisted to disk to be removed. This prevents the jobs from "reappearing" if a queue with the same name is created at a later date. [#8316] [5.1x11]
* Fixed a problem where print jobs could hang if the remote printer refused to send an LPR error code but the TCP connection was kept alive. Stuck print jobs are now taken offline after 5 minutes. [#7959] [5.1x10]
* Fixed a problem where the ExtremeZ-IP Administrator would lock up for 10-15 seconds and CPU usage would spike if a print queue was added when the service was already configured to have hundreds of print queues. [#7712] [5.1x06]
* Fixed an issue where the service would take a very long time to startup if the server contained a print queue that had print jobs persisted to disk when the service was last shutdown. Jobs are persisted to disk if the queue did not get to processing those jobs before the service was shutdown. [#5528] [5.1x06]
* Limited logging of certain queue initialization errors (such as non-specified PPDs or errors initializing Appletalk) in order to cut down on messages put in the Windows Event Log when the service is configured with a very large number of print queues. [#8263] [5.1x09]
* Reduced the frequency that the Print Queues window of the Administrator refreshes in order to cut down on CPU used by the Administrator when a large number of print queues are configured. [#8264] [5.1x09]
* Fixed a problem where the username could fail to display properly in the logging of a Print Accounting queue. [#8850] [5.1x39]
