Perhaps SYS1.LINKLIB was a poorly chosen example.  But I can envision
a production job's or autoops submitting a production job's desire to
chide someone sitting on a needed data set.

Perhaps autoops has the answer to the original question.

If a programmer is so rash as to submit a job with DSN=SYS1.LINKLIB,
DISP=OLD, does it go in the queue and block other jobs?

 Beyond that, OS has always struck me as having a paucity of APIs
compared to its brethren.  On those other systems, the question would
be posed as "What API does the operator command use?" not "What is
the interface to issue the operator command?"
