New page

The '''OPER''' privilege allows a process to use the Operator Communication Manager (OPCOM) process to reply to user's requests, to broadcast messages to all terminals logged in, to designate terminals as operators'
terminals and specify the types of messages to be displayed on these operators' terminals, and to initialize and control the log file of operators' messages. In addition, this privilege lets the user spool devices, create
and control all queues, and modify the protection and ownership of all non-file-structured devices.

Grant this privilege only to the operators of the system. These are the users who respond to the requests of ordinary users, who tend to the needs of the system's peripheral devices (mounting reels of tape and changing
printer forms), and who attend to all the other day-to-day chores of system operation. (A nonprivileged user can log in on the console terminal to respond to operator requests, for example, to mount a tape.)

The OPER privilege lets a process perform the following tasks:
