And don't use SLTCMD at all.

Instead of "SLTCMD STR*" just use "STR*" because 1) you get the same
results, and 2) the S and D are side by side on the keyboard (meaning less
chance of inadvertently keying "DLTCMD STR*").

Subject: Re: Most important commands

I think that one of the most important commands is the one to find the
command they need. SLTCMD will give them a list of commands that they may
be looking for. Along with that the concept of how the commands are named
using the 3 letter contraction (for the most part). They will need to
have
appropriate authority to do what they need, like control printers, tape
devices, do saves and restores, reset passwords, etc. All of that is up
to
you and your company to determine what the job duties are for the
operators.
Are they also help desk? Do they need to vary on and off devices?

SLTCMD with any of the following;

STR*
WRK*
DSP*
DLT* (restricted access?)
ADD*
CRT*
CFG*
CHG*
CHK*
CLR*
CPY*
END*
HLD*
INZ*
RMV*

Yes - several commands need to be restricted. PWRDWNSYS is an important
one, as is STRSBS or ENDSBS and DLT* or RMV* all depending on their level
of
need to do operations, and level of knowledge and competence.

I'm doing operations training. In the past, our operators have been
'warm
bodies' who were expected to call for help when anything abnormal
happened,
not attempt to diagnose and correct problems. Now, we need to make real
operators out of them so I'm looking for opinions as to which commands
you
believe are the most important for an operator to know. Keep your list
to
something manageable, say 5 or 10, please.

If you have commands that you believe that operators should definitely
not
use (like PWRDWNSYS), please list them also.

Thanks,

Steve
