MUMPS-11

The MUMPS-11 Operator's Guide is a comprehensive manual for system managers and operators using the MUMPS-11 interactive, multi-user time-sharing system. It details the step-by-step procedures required to build the basic system, perform system generation (SYSGEN) to tailor the environment to specific hardware, and maintain the system using various utility programs. The manual covers console operation, including the use of switch registers for booting and debugging (Mini-ODT), system backup strategies (using MBU), and system shutdown protocols. Furthermore, it provides technical information on error detection, recovery, and the interpretation of system messages, alongside appendices containing a glossary of terms, the character set, and the SYSGEN global layout.
