The duties of operations vary. Backups of all data for Utah State University occur in operations. This makes data integrity possible. If you've ever wondered where telephone registration transpires, wonder no longer. That is simply one example of what occurs here.
Operators mount tapes for the writing and retrieval of data.
They also assist systems programmers and the systems manager in performing tasks which must occur on the mainframe level. Adrian Lundgren, operations supervisor, ensures the tasks of operations are executed properly. Staff is on-call 24 hours to restore OCS service. Operators do not trouble-shoot for users. If you need technical support, please contact the consultants at the helpdesk in SER 301.
