<snip> proper use of the HMC by the operators when they perform their job responsibilities <unsnip>
I tend to agree that 'their responsibility' appears to be more than operators tend to have. Another option is to support remote HMC access, inside a VPN(ish) environment, and let the sysprog(s) tend to non IPL procedures. But do lock the non sandbox partitions.
