Section 04: Supervisory System

[04.00.00]

INTRODUCTION

The Commercial Translator Processor operates as one of a group of processors which are connected and controlled by a system supervisor called the 709/7090 Basic Monitor. The flow of jobs through the Commercial Translator Processor is controlled by the Commercial Translator Supervisor (CTM). This section explains the functions of:

1. Basic Monitor
2. Commercial Translator Supervisor

An attempt has been made to provide sufficient operating detail to enable an installation to exploit fully the capabilities of the Basic Monitor, without obscuring the simple methods of ordinary job running.

For a more detailed explanation of the Basic Monitor refer to the manual, IBM 7090 Operating Systems: Basic Monitor (IBSYS). Form J28-8086-0.

For input/output, checkpoint and restart facilities refer to the 709/7090 Input/Output Control System. The form number of the manual is C28-6100-2.
