If an operator / scheduler suspects a job looping (either from a monitor warning, SDSF display, much longer run time than prior history shows, etc.), they call the on-call programmer for that app. One thing ops can't do is see if the system is running at or near 100% and if the job in question is using a lot of CPU.
