Course Description:
Previous courses of the Fundamentals of iSeries Operations series have described tasks that might be performed by any user who submits batch jobs and controls job output. This course describes additional work management tasks that are typically reserved for the OS/400 operator.

The course begins by describing how to manage interactive jobs, the sessions in which system users are involved. You will see how to invoke the Work with Signed-On Users display, which is a list of all signed-on users. Various ways to manipulate the list — such as sorting it on different fields and changing the information displayed for each user — are described. The course then describes several operations that can be performed from this display. You will see how to send a message to a user or group of users and how to sign a user off the system.

Next, the course describes how to manage job queues. You will see how to display information about the job queues in your system and how to hold and release job queues. The course shows how to display detailed information about a job in the system, and explains how to view the job log for a job.

Printer writers are considered next: how to start a printer writer, stop a printer writer, respond to printer writer messages, and hold and release a printer. You will also see how assign a printer writer to a different output queue. Finally, the course describes how to start and stop a subsystem.
