The op k e,1’d them. They did a d r,l to get the message number. I wasn’t 
watching the console that closely but the only time a op had to reply to the 
message was to bring down the job for a planned IPL.
Sometimes (if the system stayed up for that long) the jobs would run for 2-3 
weeks and we had multiple jobs running concurrently and there would be 4 or 
more wtor’s outstanding. Since the jobs were submitted by production control 
they did most of the care and feeding. BTW these were really multitasking jobs 
I looked at a dump for one of the bugs and found 31 tcb’s. I was flabbergasted 
that they did so many attach’s.
