Casey,
Welcome! This is a great platform, and it sound like a good opportunity
to carve out a niche for yourself. You have also found one of the best
technical resources for this platform, and I suggest that you spend a
little time on www.midrange.com in the FAQ and Archives especially.
Here are some IBM documentation sites you might find useful.

I want to really shine on this platform as no one in my shop wants to
touch the box and I don't see us ever migrating away from it. I know how
to check qsysopr msgq and fix a printer here and there. I learn well
with books and hands on. Can anyone suggest a primer or good book that
can get me over the operator hump and into system administrator waters?
We run 2 boxes (620-v5r2 & 520-v5r4).
If you've got a recent/relevant book or two you have laying around I
might be interested in taking it off your hand$.
