IBM System/360 User Manual

Controlling a System With T50
Two commands are used to control TSO: OPERATOR and ACCOUNT. The
OPERATOR command is used to regulate the operation of the system from a
terminal. The ACCOUNT command is used to maintain the list of
authorized users of the system.
You must have authorization from your installation to use either the
OPERATOR or the ACCOUNT command. This a uthorization is recorded in the
system with your user attributes. Use of the OPERATOR command is
restricted to terminals that have the transmit-interruption capability.
The OPERATOR Command
The OPERATOR command, through its subcornmands, allows you to perform the
following functions:
• Monitor terminal acti vi ty (MONITOR and STOPMN subcommands).
• Display TSO information (DISPLAY subcommand).
• Cancel a terminal session or a background job (CANCEL' subcommand) •
•
Send messages to terminal users (SEND subcommand).
• Modify time sharing parameters (MODIFY subcommand).
• End operation of the OPERATOR command (END subcommand).
Note:
1. The OPERATOR command is supported only for those terminals for
which the BREAK operand of the TERMINAL command is valid, that is,
for those terminals which have the transmit interruption
capability.
2. The attention interruption will not halt the output from system
operator commands, such as DISPLAY ACTIVE.
You must first enter the command and then the subcommand you wish to
use. For example, use the following sequence to enter the MONITOR
s ubc ornrnand :
READY

Subcommands of operator which are also system operator commands follow
the 08/360 operator command language syntax. For further information on
system operator commands and procedures refer to the publications, Time
Sharin~ii2~L-£9mmand Language Reference, and Operator's Procedures.
