Would this have to be run on all nodes in the cluster ?

for instance if node 1 has TXA1 spooled to DISK1.
When node 2 shuts down, none of its devices will be spooled, but would a
clean dismount be possible because another node still has devices
spooled to that disk ?


I stopped spooling my remaining serial printer many moons ago.
